U+841B "萛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+841B "萛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that functions as a variant form of the more common character 算 (suàn), which primarily conveys the meanings of "to calculate," "to count," or "to compute." In traditional and simplified Chinese texts, 萛 appears in historical or classical contexts where 算 is more standard, though it may also be encountered in certain Japanese or Korean kanji fallback usages. Its structure combines the grass radical 艹 with a phonetic component, suggesting a tenuous link to counting or enumeration, but modern dictionaries generally list 萛 as an obsolete or alternative glyph rather than a primary character.
