U+5400 "吀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5400 "吀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically carries the meaning of a smile or to laugh, though it is considered archaic and is rarely used in modern standard Chinese writing. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block and is composed of the radical for mouth, representing speech or sound, alongside a phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation. In contemporary contexts, it may appear in classical texts or specialized dictionaries but has largely been replaced by more common characters like 笑 for the concept of smiling.
