U+8407 "萇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8407 "萇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used primarily in East Asian writing systems, representing a type of plant or grass, specifically the "Chinese wolfberry" or "Lycium chinense," though its meaning can also extend to contexts involving longevity or enduring growth due to its association with certain shrubs in classical texts. It is composed of the "grass" radical (艹) on top, indicating its botanical nature, and the phonetic component "長" (meaning long or length), which hints at its pronunciation and conceptual link to something that persists or stretches. This character appears in historical Chinese literature and poetry, often symbolizing resilience or the passage of time, and it retains relevance in modern contexts where classical references are maintained, such as in names or traditional writings.
