U+870D "蜍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蜍
U+870D "蜍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character commonly used in East Asian languages, primarily referring to a toad or frog, and is most famously associated with the mythological three-legged toad known as "Chan Chu" often depicted in Chinese folklore as a symbol of wealth and good fortune. In modern usage, it appears in the name of the medicinal ingredient "蟾蜍" (chánchú), meaning toad, and is also used in the term "蜍蟾" which reverses the order but holds the same meaning. The character consists of a "worm" or "insect" radical on the left and the phonetic component "余" on the right, reflecting its structural composition in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character set.
