U+99C1 "駁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+99C1 "駁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in traditional and simplified contexts, primarily meaning "to refute," "contradict," or "argue," as well as referring to a "piebald" or mixed-color horse. Structurally, it combines the radical 馬 (horse) on the left with the phonetic element 交 on the right, reflecting its historical association with horses of varied coloring and, by extension, the concept of mixing or disputing. In modern usage, it appears in words like 反駁 (to rebut) and 駁斥 (to refute), emphasizing verbal disagreement or logical counterargument rather than its original equine sense.
