U+546F "呯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

呯

U+546F "呯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in historical and classical texts, primarily representing the sound of a sudden impact or a bang, akin to an onomatopoeic expression for a loud noise or a crack. As a component of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, it belongs to the set of traditional ideographs that encode logographic writing systems, though it is relatively rare in modern usage compared to more common characters. Its structure combines the mouth radical (口) on the left, indicating its relation to sound or speech, with the phonetic component 平 (píng), which provides a clue to its pronunciation in Mandarin, where it is read as "píng" or sometimes "pēng".
