U+5523 "唣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5523 "唣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in written Chinese, primarily in the historical novel "Water Margin" (Shuihu Zhuan), where it appears as part of the name of the character "Huangfuduan" (皇甫端), though its more general meaning is associated with "making a noise" or "clamoring," often used in archaic or classical contexts. This character is not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin, but it retains significance in literary and historical texts. It belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, and its structure combines a semantic radical related to speech or mouth with a phonetic component to convey its pronunciation and meaning.
