U+8323 "茣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+8323 "茣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that appears in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, though it is considered a rare or obscure character in modern usage. Its traditional pronunciation is "wú" in Mandarin, and it is notably referenced as part of the name "茣州" (Wu Prefecture), an ancient administrative region in what is now Hunan Province, China. The character itself is composed of the grass radical (艹) atop the phonetic component "吳" (wú), and its primary meaning relates to a type of grass or derived place-name, with little to no common application in contemporary writing, making it mostly of interest to historical linguists, calligraphers, or those studying classical texts.
