U+918D "醍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+918D "醍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, where it primarily refers to a clarified butter or ghee, often associated with high quality in ancient contexts, such as a term for "fine cream" or "the best part" in Buddhist scriptures. In classical Chinese, it appears in the compound "醍醐" (tíhú), which denotes the essence of milk or the ultimate flavor, metaphorically implying the highest wisdom or supreme teachings, especially in East Asian Buddhist philosophy. The character itself combines the radical for "alcohol" or "fermentation" (酉) on the left, suggesting a liquid or ritual substance, with the phonetic element "是" (shì) on the right, which provides sound but not meaning.
