U+54C5 "哅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+54C5 "哅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that falls under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, encoded in the Unicode Standard to represent a logographic writing system. Its composition typically combines the mouth radical "口" with the phonetic component "凶," though its precise historical meaning is obscure and not commonly found in modern usage; it may have denoted shouting, roaring, or a sound in classical texts, but it is largely obsolete today. This character exists primarily for scholarly purposes, digital preservation of historical scripts, or specialized typographical needs, reflecting the vast inventory of obscure Sinographs that Unicode aims to include for comprehensive representation of written East Asian languages.
