Unicode Version 17.0
艾
U+827E "艾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to the mugwort plant, specifically Artemisia argyi, which has been used in traditional East Asian medicine for centuries, often in moxibustion therapy where the dried leaves are burned to stimulate acupuncture points. Beyond its botanical meaning, "艾" also conveys the idea of being old or aged, particularly in the context of elderly people, and can be used as a verb meaning to stop or end. Additionally, it appears in the name of the Ai people, an ethnic group in China, and is a common component in personal names and place names throughout East Asia.
