U+874C "蝌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+874C "蝌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a tadpole, the aquatic larval stage of a frog or toad. In modern Standard Chinese, this character is most commonly used in the compound word "蝌蚪" (kē dǒu), which specifically means tadpole. The character itself combines a radical meaning "insect" or "creature" on the left side, indicating its association with small animals, with a phonetic component on the right that provides a clue to its pronunciation. Beyond its literal zoological meaning, "蝌" appears in some classical texts and poetic descriptions of nature, but it holds no major philosophical or historical significance outside of its role in describing amphibian development.
