U+8393 "莓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
莓
U+8393 "莓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to the berry fruit, most commonly the strawberry, though it can denote various types of small, soft fruits such as raspberries or blackberries in different contexts. Composed of the grass radical (艹) suggesting a plant and a phonetic component, this ideograph is used in East Asian languages including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, often appearing in compound words like 草莓 (cǎoméi) for strawberry or 蓝莓 (lánméi) for blueberry. In Japanese, it is read as "ichigo" in kun'yomi, famously associated with the fictional character Momo Yaoyorozu from My Hero Academia whose surname contains the character.
