U+83AB "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+83AB "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character commonly used in written Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, where it carries the primary meaning of "not" or "do not," functioning as a negative imperative or adverb. It also conveys senses of "none," "nothing," or "cannot," and appears in compound words such as 莫大 (mòdà, meaning "extremely great") and 莫名其妙 (mò míng qí miào, meaning "baffling" or "unable to make sense of something"). Visually, it is composed of the radical 艹 (grass) atop the element 日 (sun) over 大 (big), though its etymology traces back to an ancient pictograph depicting the sun setting among grasses, symbolizing the concept of "evening" or "dusk," from which its abstract senses of negation evolved.
