U+5590 "喐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5590 "喐" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that is primarily used as a variant form of the more common character "唾" (tuò), which means "to spit" or "saliva," though it can also appear in other contexts such as transliterations or as a component in certain names and historical texts. In modern standard Mandarin, it is not frequently used in daily writing, and its pronunciation is typically rendered as "yù" or "huō" depending on the regional dialect and specific usage, reflecting its status as a relatively obscure glyph within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) character set.
