U+8492 "蒒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8492 "蒒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character classified under the radical for "grass" or "plant" (艹) with a total of 13 strokes, and it is known to be a variant or component found in some historical or less common Chinese texts. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is likely shī, based on its phonetic component 師 (shī), but it does not appear in modern standard dictionaries as a frequently used character. The specific meaning of 蒒 remains obscure, with no widely documented definition in contemporary usage, though it may have been used in ancient literature or as a specialized botanical term. Thus, this character represents an obscure piece of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, primarily of interest to scholars of historical Chinese scripts or character encoding.
