U+5461 "呡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

呡

U+5461 "呡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that is classified as a rare or seldom-used logogram in modern standard Mandarin. It is composed of the radical "口" (mouth, indicating speech or oral actions) and the phonetic component "民" (people, pronounced mín), suggesting it may have originally denoted a sound or utterance related to a hushed or closed-mouth action, such as sipping or tasting. Historically, it appears in classical Chinese texts as a variant or obscure character, but it is not commonly found in contemporary dictionaries or everyday usage, making it a curiosity for scholars of historical Chinese script and Unicode encoding rather than a practical term in modern communication.
