U+9197 "醗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9197 "醗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese and Japanese kanji character that corresponds to the simplified form of the traditional character "醱," which is associated with the fermentation or bubbling of liquids, particularly in the context of brewing or leavening. In modern usage, it appears in Japanese as a variant of the character for "ferment" or "brew," often linked to the process of producing sake or other alcoholic beverages. Its structure incorporates the radical for "wine" or "alcohol" (酉) alongside phonetic components, reflecting its etymological connection to effervescence or chemical activation. While less common in everyday writing, it remains present in specialized vocabulary related to fermentation science and traditional brewing techniques.
