U+9EF4 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+9EF4 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a complex Chinese character that generally conveys meanings related to mold, mildew, or yeast, often associated with decay or fermentation. It can also refer to a type of fungus, and by extension, it carries connotations of something becoming spoiled or aged, such as bread turning moldy. In traditional and classical Chinese texts, the character sometimes appears in the context of a term for a blackish or dark spot, reflecting its radical "黍" which relates to millet or grain, combined with phonetic elements. This character is distinct from the more common simplified form used in modern Chinese for "mold," which is "霉" (U+9709), though both share overlapping semantic fields.
