U+567A "噺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+567A "噺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used primarily in Japanese and Chinese writing, where it conveys the meaning of "new" or "fresh," often in the context of storytelling or a new topic. In Japanese, it is notably employed as a component in the word "hanashi" (話) to denote a "new story" or "fresh tale," and it appears in compound terms related to narrative innovation. Its structure combines the radical for "mouth" (口) on the left with the phonetic element "新" (meaning "new") on the right, reflecting its semantic association with novel speech or narrative beginnings. Though less common in modern simplified Chinese, it remains a recognized character in classical and literary contexts, particularly in East Asian textual traditions.
