U+5645 "噅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

噅

U+5645 "噅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that traditionally has been associated with meanings such as "to deceive" or "to cheat," and it is sometimes used in classical texts to denote a dishonest or cunning action or person. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is commonly given as "huī" or "wéi," though it is not frequently found in modern standard usage, appearing more often in historical or literary contexts. In Japanese, this character is similarly obscure and may be read as "ki" or "gi" in certain compounds, but it remains largely unused in contemporary written language. Due to its scarcity, the character is not included in common Chinese or Japanese character sets and is primarily of interest to scholars of ancient texts and typography enthusiasts exploring the full breadth of the CJK Unified Ideographs standard.
