蛆
U+86C6 "蛆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a maggot or larva, specifically the wormlike young of a fly, often associated with decay and decomposition. This character combines the radical for insect or worm on the left side with a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its biological meaning. In modern usage, it appears in contexts ranging from entomology and hygiene warnings to figurative language in Chinese, where it can symbolize something corrupt, insignificant, or morally repulsive. Its existence in the Unicode standard ensures that this semantically vivid term is preserved across digital texts, enabling precise communication in Chinese and related languages without ambiguity.
