U+548A "咊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
咊
U+548A "咊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that carries the primary meaning of "harmony" or "peace," often serving as a variant form of the more common character 和. Its structure combines the mouth radical 口 with the phonetic component 禾, which also suggests the concept of grain or crops, thus linking the idea of spoken agreement to agricultural abundance in its etymological roots. In classical and historical Chinese texts, this character appears in contexts related to gentle speech, mutual accord, or musical consonance, though it has largely fallen out of modern standard usage in favor of the simpler and more prevalent 和.
