Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8783 "螃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of crab, specifically the "pang" in "pang xie," the common Chinese word for crab. In traditional Chinese and Japanese usage, this ideograph is often associated with crustaceans, particularly denoting the pincer-clawed marine creature, and it appears in classical texts and culinary contexts. The character is composed of the radical "虫" (insect or creature) on the left, indicating its connection to animals, and the phonetic component "旁" on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "páng."
