U+8577 "蕷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally used in East Asian languages, most commonly in Classical Chinese and literary contexts. It specifically refers to a type of edible tuber, known as yam or Chinese yam (Dioscorea opposita), and is often associated with the term "蕷藷" (yù shǔ) or simply "山藥" (shān yào) in modern usage. In practical terms, the character is rarely used in everyday simplified Chinese but may appear in historical texts, botanical references, or traditional medicine discussions where the yam's nutritional and medicinal properties are noted.
