U+8582 "薂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
薂
U+8582 "薂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, primarily appearing in classical texts or specialized contexts. It is composed of the radical for grass or plant (艹) and a phonetic component, and its historical meanings are associated with a type of edible water plant, often identified as the water chestnut (Trapa natans) or similar aquatic vegetation. The character carries connotations of natural growth and aquatic environments, reflecting its botanical roots in ancient Chinese writing, though its usage today is largely confined to historical or literary references rather than everyday communication.
