U+9F70 "齰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
齰
U+9F70 "齰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that primarily functions as a verb meaning to bite or gnaw, often specifically referring to the action of clamping down with the teeth. It is composed of the radical "齒" (tooth/teeth) on the left, indicating its semantic association with the mouth or biting, and the phonetic component "昔" on the right. This character appears in classical Chinese texts but is seldom used in modern standard Chinese, making it an obscure and largely obsolete glyph within the CJK Unified Ideographs block.
