U+55C0 "嗀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

嗀

U+55C0 "嗀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily means "to vomit" or "to retch," and it is also used in Japanese (Kanji) with a similar meaning. This ideograph belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block, which encompasses a wide range of characters used in East Asian writing systems. The character is composed of the radical "口" (mouth) on the left, indicating a vocal or oral action, and a phonetic component on the right. It appears occasionally in classical and modern texts, often in contexts describing nausea, expulsion, or violent coughing, though it is not among the most frequently used characters in everyday modern Chinese or Japanese.
