U+5635 "嘵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5635 "嘵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally means "to talk noisily" or "to be loquacious," often carrying a connotation of boastful or arrogant speech. It is composed of the mouth radical (口) on the left and the phonetic component "堯" (yao) on the right, reflecting its logographic structure in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) writing systems. In modern usage, this character appears less frequently in everyday language, but it remains notable in classical texts and as part of compound words like "哓哓" (xiāo xiāo), which describes a clamorous or bickering sound. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is xiāo, with a high level tone, and it is encoded in the Unicode standard to support electronic text representation across these East Asian scripts.
