U+5657 "噗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5657 "噗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used as an onomatopoeia, representing a puffing, spitting, or soft bursting sound, such as the noise of a gentle laugh, a quick breath, or liquid spurting out. In modern usage, particularly in digital communication and manga, it often conveys a subtle, amused snort or a light, suppressed chuckle, similar to a "pfft" sound. This character is composed of the "mouth" radical (口) on the left, indicating its connection to speech or sound, and the phonetic component "菐" (pú) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation.
