U+6B58 "歘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+6B58 "歘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and visually striking Chinese character that conveys the suddenness or swiftness of an action, often associated with the sound or sensation of something moving rapidly, such as a gust of wind or a quick snatch. It is composed of the radical "欠" (qiàn), which relates to breathing or deficiency, and the phonetic component "欻" (xū or chuā), and in classical texts it appears primarily as an onomatopoeic or ideophonic element to depict a sharp, abrupt movement or sound. While not commonly used in modern Chinese, it is recognized in historical literature and specialized dictionaries, and its representation in Unicode ensures that this nuanced character remains preserved for digital text and scholarly use.
