U+8379 "荹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8379 "荹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character used primarily in classical or regional contexts, belonging to the set of East Asian ideographs encoded for electronic text. Its exact meaning is not widely attested in modern Mandarin dictionaries, but based on its radical and components, it likely relates to plants or vegetation, possibly representing a specific type of grass or a variant form of a more common character. As with many obscure CJK characters, its usage is largely confined to historical texts, specialized linguistic studies, or personal name records, and it serves to demonstrate the comprehensive inclusion of lesser-known ideographs within the Unicode standard.
