This character specifically means "spider" and is often found in compounds like 蜘蛛 (zhīzhū), the standard Mandarin word for spider, while in Japanese it appears in terms like 蜘蛛 (kumo) with the same meaning. Its visual composition includes the radical 虫 (insect or creature) on the left side, reflecting its biological association with arachnids, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation.
