U+9A82 "骂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9A82 "骂" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to scold," "to curse," or "to swear at someone," and it is widely used in both Mandarin and Cantonese as well as in classical Chinese literature. The character consists of two radicals: the upper part "口" which signifies "mouth" and the lower part "马" which means "horse," together conveying the concept of using harsh words aimed at a horse or, more generally, abusive language. In modern usage, "骂" appears in compound words such as "骂人" (to call someone names) and "责骂" (to rebuke), and it plays a key role in expressing confrontation or displeasure in everyday conversation. Historically, the character has been documented in ancient texts, reflecting its long standing as a term for verbal reprimand across various Chinese dynasties.
