U+828F "芏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

芏

U+828F "芏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that has historically been used in classical texts and regional dialects, though it is not commonly found in modern standard Mandarin vocabulary. Its basic meaning is associated with a type of plant or grass, often specifically referencing the kudzu vine or similar creeping vegetation, and it can also serve as a surname in some contexts. The character belongs to the grass radical (艹) and typically carries a phonetic component that hints at its pronunciation, which in Mandarin is approximated as "dù" or "tǔ" depending on the specific usage and historical period. In the Unicode standard, it is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing a script system shared across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages, though its usage remains niche and largely confined to literary or specialized references.
