U+8A6C "詬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8A6C "詬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese Han character (pronounced gòu in Mandarin and kou or ku in some Japanese and Korean readings) that fundamentally means "to revile," "to abuse," or "to scold," and by extension carries connotations of shame and disgrace. It is composed of a "speech" or "words" radical (訁/讠) on the left combined with a phonetic component on the right, indicating its semantic field of verbal expression. Historically, this character appears in classical Chinese texts to denote harsh verbal reproach or humiliation, and it remains a component in modern East Asian vocabulary, such as in the compound "詬罵" (gòumà), meaning to curse or insult someone.
