U+5489 "咉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
咉
U+5489 "咉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily functions as an ideograph with a semantic connection to sound or vocal expression, often carrying the meaning of a dull, echoing, or indistinct noise, such as a groan or a cry of refusal. Its structure combines the radical for "mouth" (口) on the left, indicating its relation to speech or sound, with the phonetic component "央" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation. This character is not among the most common in modern Mandarin Chinese, but it appears in classical texts and certain regional dialects, occasionally used to denote the sound of a response or a refusal, like saying "hmm" or "uh" in a hesitant tone.
