Unicode Version 17.0
葁
U+8441 "葁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in classical or historical contexts, representing a type of plant, specifically referring to ginger or a similar aromatic herb, as its radical and components suggest a connection to vegetation and flavoring. It is composed of the grass radical (艹) combined with other elements that denote phonetic or semantic cues, though it is less common in modern standard Chinese, where the simplified character 姜 is typically used instead.
