U+5AD1 "嫑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5AD1 "嫑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and informal Chinese character primarily used in regional dialects and colloquial speech, particularly in the Hokkien and Taiwanese languages, where it functions as a contraction of the phrase "不要" (bù yào), meaning "do not want" or "don't." Structurally, it is a combination of the radicals for "not" (不) and "woman" (女), visually representing the idea of refusal or rejection. This character is not commonly found in standard Mandarin texts but appears in informal writing, online communication, and signage to succinctly convey a prohibitive or negative command.
