U+8B2E "謮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8B2E "謮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character found in historical texts, classified under the radical for speech or words (言). Its primary meaning relates to scolding, reproaching, or speaking harshly, and it appears in classical literature, such as the Han dynasty dictionary "Shuowen Jiezi," where it is defined as an intense form of verbal reprimand. Due to its infrequent use in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean writing systems, this character is not included in common character sets and typically requires specialized fonts or software to display properly, making it a subject of interest for scholars studying ancient philology and calligraphy.
