U+566D "噭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+566D "噭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese logogram that primarily means to shout, cry out, or call loudly, and historically it could also denote a specific type of mourning wail or the sound of a horse's neigh. This character is composed of the radical "口" (mouth) on the left, indicating its relation to vocal sounds, and the phonetic component "敫" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation. In classical Chinese texts, it appears in contexts involving intense emotional expression, such as in the "Shiji" (Records of the Grand Historian) or poetry, though its usage in modern standard Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese) is rare, often considered archaic or literary. The Unicode standard encodes it under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, ensuring its representation for digital preservation of historical and linguistic works.
