U+8541 "蕁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8541 "蕁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily denotes the concept of "nettle" or "urticaceous plants," specifically referencing plants with stinging hairs, and is also used in traditional Chinese medicine to refer to the herb *Urtica thunbergiana*. This character appears in both simplified and traditional Chinese scripts, though its usage is relatively specialized, often appearing in botanical or medicinal contexts rather than in everyday language. Its phonetic component is "尋" (xún), implying a sound resemblance, while its semantic radical "艹" indicates its association with plants and herbs. In Japanese, this character is read as "蕁" (jin) and features in the term "蕁麻疹" (jinmashin), meaning "urticaria" or "hives," directly linking the character to skin reactions caused by nettle stings. The character's overall significance thus bridges botanical identification with medical terminology across East Asian languages.
