U+560B "嘋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+560B "嘋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, though it lacks common usage in modern standard Chinese or Japanese texts. Its composition involves the mouth radical (口, kǒu) on the left, suggesting a connection to speech or sound, and the phonetic component 孝 (xiào, meaning filial piety) on the right, which may influence its pronunciation. However, the exact meaning of 嘋 is obscure and not well-documented in major dictionaries, possibly representing an archaic or specialized term, and it does not appear frequently in historical literature or contemporary digital communications.
