U+82A6 "芦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
芦
U+82A6 "芦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that also appears in Japanese and Korean as part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block. In simplified Chinese, it is used as a variant of the traditional character 蘆, meaning "reed" or "rush," referring to a type of tall, grass-like plant commonly found near water. In Japanese, it can be read as "ashi" or "ro" and similarly denotes the common reed (Phragmites australis). This character consists of the radical for grass (艹) combined with the component 戶 (door), though the full form historically derived from a separate compound. Its usage appears in place names, personal names, and poetic contexts across East Asian written traditions.
