U+862B "蘫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+862B "蘫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character classified under the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, primarily used in historical or classical Chinese texts. It is composed of the radical for grass or plant meaning 艹, suggesting an association with vegetation, combined with a phonetic component. This character has been identified with meanings related to salted vegetables or pickles, often referring to a type of preserved food in ancient contexts. Due to its obscure nature, it is seldom encountered in modern standard Chinese, though it may appear in specialized literary or philological studies of early Chinese cuisine or lexicography. The specific U+862B codepoint ensures its consistent digital representation across Unicode compliant systems for scholarly and archival purposes.
