U+838A "莊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
莊
U+838A "莊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of a village, manor, or a dignified, solemn place, often associated with rural estates or ancestral halls. It is composed of the radical for grass or vegetation and the phonetic component "壯" which conveys the notion of strength or grandeur. Historically, the character appears in classical texts and is used in modern contexts to denote surnames, place names, and terms related to rural communities or business establishments, such as "莊園" meaning manor or estate. In simplified Chinese, it is often replaced by the character "庄" (U+5E84), which retains a similar meaning but with fewer strokes.
