U+851E "蔞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蔞
U+851E "蔞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily refers to a type of plant, specifically the "artemisia" or mugwort species, often used in traditional contexts. In classical and modern Chinese, it can denote a creeping weed or a trailing plant, and it appears in idioms such as "節衣縮食" (to live frugally), where "蔞" may be used metaphorically to describe hardship or modesty. This character is also historically associated with the name of an ancient state or region, though its most common usage remains botanical. In Japanese, it is recognized as a Hyōgai kanji with similar meanings, typically referring to plants like wormwood.
