U+83FC "菼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+83FC "菼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used in classical and literary contexts. It primarily refers to a type of rush or reed, specifically the early growth of the Miscanthus plant, which is a tall grass often found in wetlands and used historically for thatching or weaving. The character is composed of the radical for grass (艹) and the phonetic component 炎, reflecting both its botanical meaning and sound. While not common in modern everyday Chinese, it appears in ancient texts and poetry to describe lush vegetation or the specific reed species, and its usage is largely confined to specialized or historical references within the broader East Asian writing system.
