U+9A5F "驟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
驟
U+9A5F "驟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "sudden," "abrupt," or "quickly," often used to describe a rapid or unexpected change in speed, action, or condition, such as in the phrase "驟雨" meaning a sudden rain shower. This character is composed of the radical 馬 (horse), hinting at its original association with the swift movement of a horse, combined with the phonetic component 聚, which contributes to its pronunciation in Mandarin as "zhòu." Classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, it is used in both modern and classical written texts across East Asian languages, reflecting a rich semantic field centered on urgency and transience.
