U+547C "呼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+547C "呼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to exhale," "to call," or "to shout," and it often conveys the idea of breathing out or summoning someone. In modern usage, it appears in common words such as "呼吸" (hūxī, meaning "breath" or "respiration") and "呼叫" (hūjiào, meaning "to call" or "to hail"). Historically, the character is composed of the radical "口" (kǒu, meaning "mouth") and the phonetic component "乎" (hū), which together emphasize the act of sound or air being expelled from the mouth. This character is widely used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, reflecting its deep roots in East Asian linguistic and cultural contexts.
