U+836E "荮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+836E "荮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in both traditional and simplified Chinese writing, primarily representing a type of edible plant or herb often associated with wild greens or leafy vegetables in classical texts. Its component parts include the grass radical (艹) indicating its botanical nature, and a phonetic element that contributes to its pronunciation, though the character is relatively rare in modern standard usage. In historical contexts, 荮 can denote a fern or similar vegetation, and it appears in some ancient dictionaries and literary works describing plants used for food or medicine. While not common in contemporary everyday writing, it remains part of the Unicode standard for digital representation of classical and technical Chinese linguistic heritage.
