U+544C "呌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

呌

U+544C "呌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character commonly an old variant form of the word "叫" (jiào), which means "to call," "to shout," or "to cry out." Found in classical and historical Chinese texts, this character belongs to the Kangxi radical 30 (口, "mouth") and has 7 strokes. It is used occasionally in traditional literature and Buddhist scriptures to convey the act of vocalizing loudly or summoning, though it has largely fallen out of common usage in modern standardized Chinese writing, where the simpler and more familiar character "叫" prevails.
