U+831E "茞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+831E "茞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used in classical texts and historical contexts, primarily functioning as a component in place names, personal names, or curated terms rather than in modern common vocabulary. It is composed of the "grass" radical (艹) over a phonetic element, and its meanings relate to fragrant herbs or plants, sometimes specifically referring to a type of angelica or medicinal herb found in ancient literature. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, encoded for compatibility with historical and scholarly usage, but it is rare in everyday writing.
