U+8B38 "謸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8B38 "謸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily conveys the meaning of arrogance, pride, or haughtiness, often with a negative connotation of being disdainful or rude. It is composed of the radical 言 (yán, meaning "speech" or "words") on the left side, which relates to language or speaking, and a phonetic component on the right that influences its pronunciation, though the exact reading varies across different Chinese dialects and languages, such as being read as "áo" in Mandarin. This character appears in classical Chinese texts and extends into other East Asian writing systems that adopt Chinese characters, such as Japanese and Korean, where it maintains similar semantic associations with insolence or defiance. In modern usage, it is relatively rare, found more often in literary or historical contexts than in everyday communication.
