Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+8446 "葆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to preserve," "to cherish," or "to protect," and it is often associated with the concept of maintaining life or vitality, such as in the phrase "永葆青春" meaning "to preserve youth forever." It is also used as a component in the name of certain plants, like "葆草," referring to a type of grass or herb, and appears in classical texts and modern contexts to convey a sense of nurturing or safeguarding. Structurally, it is composed of the radical for grass or plant (艹) and the phonetic component 保, which contributes both sound and semantic hints related to protection.
