U+8099 "肙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
肙
U+8099 "肙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically represents the meaning of a wriggling insect or small creature, often associated with larvae or maggots, and is composed of the "flesh" or "meat" radical on the left and a phonetic component on the right. In modern Japanese, it is a rarely used kanji that appears primarily in specialized contexts, such as the term "肙虫" (sanjū, meaning a type of parasitic worm), while in Chinese it retains its classical connotations of decomposition or small, crawling organisms. Its usage is largely limited to literary or historical texts, and it is not a common character in everyday language.
