U+83E4 "菤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
菤
U+83E4 "菤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character classified as a Han ideograph, primarily used in classical and historical contexts. It belongs to the radical for grass (艹) with the component 卷 (meaning "roll" or "curl") as a phonetic and semantic hint, and its core meaning relates to a plant associated with winding or rolling, often interpreted as the "kusamaki" or the fern-like foliage of certain climbing herbs. This character is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, but appears in specialized botanical terminology or ancient literary texts, where it may describe a type of vine or a plant with curly leaves.
