U+543F "吿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents an alternative or variant form of the more common character "告" (gào), which means to tell, announce, inform, or accuse. In classical and some modern contexts, "吿" appears as a historical or calligraphic variant, often used interchangeably with "告" in traditional texts, though it is less frequent in contemporary simplified Chinese writing. This character is encoded under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, part of the large set of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters standardized in Unicode, and it retains the same core meaning related to communication or declaration.
