Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+87FB "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in both Traditional Chinese and Japanese (where it is also a Jōyō kanji) to represent the word for "ant." This character is composed of the radical for "insect" or "worm" on the left side, and a phonetic component on the right that hints at its pronunciation. In Chinese, it is pronounced "yǐ" and appears in common terms, such as "螞蟻" (mǎyǐ, meaning ants collectively), while in Japanese, it is pronounced "ari" and is used similarly to refer to the insect. The glyph has a long history, originating from ancient Chinese script, and continues to be a standard element in East Asian writing systems for denoting these small, social insects.
