U+918F "醏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
醏
U+918F "醏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically obscure Chinese character that appears in the Kangxi Dictionary, where it is defined as a type of "unfermented vinegar" or a specific condiment related to sour or pickled preparations. Its structure combines the radical "酉" (representing alcohol, fermentation, or a jar) with the phonetic component "者" (zhe), suggesting a semantic connection to brewing or food preservation. In contemporary usage, this character is extremely uncommon and is primarily encountered in classical texts or specialized lexicons, carrying no significant modern standard definition or widespread application in written Chinese or Japanese.
