U+84CB "蓋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蓋
U+84CB "蓋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally means "to cover," "to build," or "a lid," and it is also used in Japanese as a kanji with meanings including "cover," "cap," and "to construct" or "to roof." Its simplified counterpart in modern Chinese is "盖" (U+76D6), while the unsimplified form "蓋" retains the classical structure with the grass radical (艹) above and the phonetic component (盍). This character appears in words like "蓋子" (gàizi) meaning "lid" or "cover" in Mandarin, and in Japanese, it features in terms such as "屋根" (yane) related to roofing, though it is less common in everyday modern usage outside of formal or compound contexts.
