U+83F4 "菴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
菴
U+83F4 "菴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that historically refers to a small hermitage, cottage, or Buddhist temple, and is often associated with a quiet, secluded dwelling used by monks or scholars. In classical Chinese texts, it can also denote the plant known as the "dogbane" or "Indian hemp," though its more common usage is as a variant form of the character 庵, which carries the same meanings of a simple shelter or nunnery. The character is composed of the grass radical suggesting botanical origins, combined with phonetic components that convey its pronunciation and nuanced semantics in East Asian languages such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
