U+8219 "舙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
舙
U+8219 "舙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character composed of three instances of the radical "舌" (tongue), arranged in a triangular formation. Its primary meaning is "to speak" or "to talk idly," and it is often associated with gossip, chattering, or excessive speech, as the repetition of tongues amplifies the sense of verbal activity. This character is not common in modern Chinese or Japanese usage, being largely confined to classical texts or specialized contexts where it describes loquaciousness or slander. Its structure and meaning emphasize the visual and conceptual layering that is a hallmark of certain ancient Chinese logographs.
