Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8599 "薙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean, where it carries the meaning of "to mow" or "to shave" and is also known as "nagi" in Japanese, often appearing in place names or compound words. Its semantic root lies in the radical for grass (艹), indicating a connection to vegetation, while the phonetic component (雉) provides a clue to its archaic pronunciation, though modern usage focuses on actions of cutting or clearing, such as in the word "薙ぐ" (nagu), meaning to cut down grass or to level something. This character is part of a broader set of unified CJK ideographs standardized for digital encoding across multiple languages.
