U+864C "虌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
虌
U+864C "虌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of plant, specifically the water caltrop or ling nut, though its usage is highly archaic and uncommon in modern Chinese texts. This character is composed of radical components associated with vegetation and a phonetic element, and it belongs to the vast set of CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs designed to encode historical and regional scripts. Its structure and meaning tie it to botanical terminology found in classical Chinese dictionaries and literary works, making it a specialized glyph of interest to scholars of historical linguistics and epigraphy rather than everyday communication.
