U+5563 "啣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
啣
U+5563 "啣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally used in written Chinese and Japanese, though it is rare in modern standard usage. It primarily carries the meaning of "to hold in the mouth" or "to carry in the mouth," often referencing an object like a bit or a ring, and appears in classical texts or compound words. This ideograph is composed of the radical for "mouth" (口) and a phonetic component, and it is sometimes interchangeable with the more common character "銜" (xián) in certain historical or regional contexts, particularly when denoting the act of holding something between the teeth or referring to a title or rank.
