U+5484 "咄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

咄

U+5484 "咄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character pronounced duō in Mandarin and primarily used as an interjection expressing surprise, reproach, or scolding, much like the English exclamation "tut-tut" or "tsk." Its semantic components include the mouth radical "口" on the left, indicating speech or sound, and a phonetic element "出" (meaning "to go out") on the right. Historically, it appears in classical texts such as the "Shiji" and classical poetry, where it often marks a sharp, commanding tone or disdainful laughter. In modern usage, it is less common in everyday speech but retains presence in idiomatic expressions like "咄咄逼人" (aggressive or overbearing manner), and it is also used in some East Asian visual media to represent a sudden or intimidating vocalization.
