U+55CB "嗋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+55CB "嗋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily carries the meaning of "to close" or "to shut," often used in contexts related to drawing in or contracting, such as the breath. It is a rarely used character in modern standard Chinese, appearing more frequently in classical texts or specialized terminology where it can denote actions like inhaling or threatening with a harsh tone. Structurally, it belongs to the mouth radical (口) and has a phonetic component suggesting its pronunciation, which is estimated to be xiā or xié in Mandarin based on historical and regional readings. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows for digital representation and preservation of this less common but historically significant logograph.
