U+858D "薍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
薍
U+858D "薍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that historically referred to a type of plant, specifically a kind of reed or rush, often identified with the young shoots of plants in the grass or sedge family. In classical texts, it sometimes appears as a variant or synonym for characters related to aquatic or marsh vegetation, and it may also be associated with the concept of disorder or confusion, as its phonetic component suggests. While not common in modern Chinese or Japanese, it is recognized in historical dictionaries and specialized contexts, reflecting the rich complexity of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified character set.
