U+83D9 "菙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

菙

U+83D9 "菙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily refers to a type of plant, specifically identified as the "thorn herb" or "bramble" in classical Chinese botanical contexts. It is composed of the radical for grass or plant, suggesting its botanical nature, and is used in traditional literary or herbal texts rather than in modern everyday language. This character appears in historical dictionaries and canonical works, where it denotes a plant with medicinal or practical uses, though its exact species is sometimes debated among scholars. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs, it is encoded in the Unicode standard to preserve digital representation for East Asian script systems.
