誚
U+8A9A "誚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in both Traditional Chinese and Japanese Kanji, where its primary meanings are "to blame," "to reproach," or "to criticize." This character is composed of two main components: the radical 言 (yán), meaning "speech" or "words," which indicates its semantic connection to verbal expression, and the phonetic component 肖 (xiào), which contributes to its pronunciation. In usage, 誚 often appears in literary or formal contexts to convey the act of rebuking or censuring someone for a mistake or fault. It is encoded in CJK Unified Ideographs, a block that encompasses a wide range of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean logographic characters standardized for digital communication.
