Unicode Version 17.0
嚅
U+5685 "嚅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to mumble" or "to mutter," often used in the context of speaking indistinctly or hesitantly, such as in the compound word "嚅嚅" to describe someone who stammers or speaks softly. It is composed of a radical related to the mouth on the left, indicating speech or oral action, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation. Historically, this character appears in classical Chinese texts, depicting nuanced states of communication, and it continues to be used in modern written Chinese, particularly in literary or descriptive contexts involving hesitant or unclear speech.
