U+84EE "蓮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蓮
U+84EE "蓮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the lotus or water lily, a plant deeply symbolic in East Asian cultures for purity, enlightenment, and rebirth, as it grows from muddy waters into a pristine flower. In Japanese, it is read as "hasu" or "ren" and appears in names like Ren, while in Korean it is "yeon" and in Vietnamese "sen." The character combines the grass radical (艹) indicating a plant, with the phonetic component 連 (lián), which suggests connection or continuity, reflecting the lotus's symbolic linking of earthly and spiritual realms. It is commonly used in classical poetry, Buddhist texts, and art, often associated with summer and the concept of unstained beauty.
