U+5491 "咑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5491 "咑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the "mouth" radical (口) on the left and the phonetic component "打" (dǎ) on the right, suggesting a meaning related to sound or action involving the mouth or hitting. In modern standard Chinese, it is not a common character but appears in some regional dialects or historical texts, where it can represent a variant of "打" (to hit, strike) or a sound-related verb, such as a sharp exhale or a shout. Its usage is rare in contemporary writing, making it more of a specialized or obscure symbol within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified character set.
