U+97FF "響" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
響
U+97FF "響" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese and Japanese kanji character that primarily means "sound," "echo," or "resonance." It is commonly used in words related to audio effects, such as "音響" (sound system or acoustics) and "影響" (influence or impact, literally "shadow and sound"). The character combines the radical for "sound" (音) on the left with a variant of "country" or "village" (郷) on the right, reflecting its historical etymology in representing sounds that reverberate through a community. In Japanese, "響" is also used in names and compounds like "響き" (hibiki, meaning echo or resonance), and it remains an important character in both written Chinese and Japanese for describing auditory phenomena.
