麳
U+9EB3 "麳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character composed of the wheat radical 麥 on the left and the phonetic component 來 on the right, and it primarily refers to wheat or a type of wheat plant in classical texts. This character is largely obsolete in modern standard Chinese, but it appears in historical dictionaries and ancient literature, such as the Shuowen Jiezi, where it is defined as a variety of wheat or sometimes as grain used for brewing. Its usage is mostly confined to specialized scholarly contexts, including paleography and the study of archaic botanical terms.
