U+55D4 "嗔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

嗔

U+55D4 "嗔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily conveys meanings of anger, resentment, or displeasure, often expressed through a frown or a scolding tone. In classical and modern usage, it appears in compounds like "嗔怪" (to blame or reproach) and "嗔怒" (to be furious), and it also carries a nuance of feigned anger or playful annoyance in certain literary contexts. The character is composed of the mouth radical (口) on the left, indicating speech or vocal expression, and the phonetic component "真" on the right, which suggests its pronunciation as "chēn" in Mandarin. This ideograph is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified block, making it usable across multiple East Asian writing systems, where it retains similar semantic connotations of anger or grumbling.
