U+8A4B "詋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8A4B "詋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely obsolete Chinese character used in classical or historical texts, not commonly found in modern standard Mandarin. Its structure combines the radical "言" (speech) on the left with "兄" (elder brother) on the right, and its meanings include to curse, to swear, or to chant incantations, often with a Buddhist or Daoist ritualistic connotation. This character appears infrequently in specialized lexicons and may be encountered in ancient literature or religious manuscripts, but it is not part of everyday language use or typical digital typography.
