U+842D "萭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
萭
U+842D "萭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that historically refers to a type of plant or grass, often associated with the ancient practice of using it to make mats or other woven items. In classical Chinese texts, it appears as a botanical term, though its modern usage is rare and largely limited to specialized or historical contexts. The character is composed of the grass radical (艹) on top, indicating its botanical nature, and a phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation, which in modern Standard Mandarin is read as "yǔ" or "jǔ."
