U+568B "嚋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
嚋
U+568B "嚋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that falls under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block. It is composed of the radical "口" (mouth) on the left and the phonetic component "壽" (longevity) on the right, and its traditional meaning relates to "to speak" or "to utter," though it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese. In classical texts, it can appear as a variant or secondary form for other characters, often associated with the act of shouting or calling out loudly. Due to its obscurity, it is seldom encountered in everyday writing or digital communication, making it primarily of interest to historical linguists, font designers, or specialists in archaic scripts.
