U+9F45 "齅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

齅

U+9F45 "齅" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that historically refers to the action of smelling or sniffing, often associated with the nose, as its radical suggests the nose component. Found in classical Chinese texts and ancient literature, it is a variant of the more common character 嗅, sharing the same meaning but with a distinct written form that emphasizes the nasal aspect. Due to its archaic nature, 齅 is rarely used in modern standard written Chinese, but it remains of interest in historical linguistics and the study of traditional Chinese orthography.
