Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8462 "葢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning "cover," "lid," or "to cover," and is a variant form of the more common character 蓋 (gài). It is composed of the radical 艹 (grass) on top and the phonetic component 盍 below, and in classical or literary contexts, it can also function as a grammatical particle indicating rhetorical questioning or inferential reasoning. This character is primarily used in Traditional Chinese, Japanese (where it is pronounced "futa" or "ka" in certain compounds), and occasionally in historical or calligraphic texts, though it is less frequent in modern simplified Chinese writing.
