U+861A "蘚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蘚
U+861A "蘚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of moss or lichen, specifically referring to small, non-vascular plants that often grow in damp, shady environments on surfaces like rocks, tree bark, and soil. In modern usage, it appears in botanical, ecological, and literary contexts, and it is also employed in compound words related to mossy textures or historical references in Classical Chinese texts. This character is composed of the radical for grass (艹) combined with the phonetic component "鮮," reflecting its semantic and phonetic construction within the CJK ideograph system used across Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages.
