U+55C2 "嗂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
嗂
U+55C2 "嗂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that appears in the CJK Unified Ideographs block, and its original meaning is to shout or to laugh loudly, often conveying a sense of robust or unrestrained vocal expression. This character consists of the "mouth" radical (口) on the left, suggesting speech or sound, and a phonetic component on the right that hints at its pronunciation. In classical Chinese literature, "嗂" is relatively rare, primarily found in historical texts or poetic works where it describes vigorous laughter or exclamatory outbursts. While not commonly used in modern written Chinese, it remains a part of the standard Unicode repertoire, representing the depth and nuance of traditional East Asian script.
