U+8912 "褒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to praise," "to honor," or "to commend," and it also carries connotations of "generous" or "ample" in certain contexts. It is composed of the clothing radical 衣 on the outside, suggesting wrapping or covering, and a phonetic component that hints at its pronunciation in Mandarin as "bāo."
