U+54A9 "咩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+54A9 "咩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily to represent the bleating sound of a sheep or goat, functioning as an onomatopoeic word. It also serves as a first-person pronoun in some regional dialects of Chinese, particularly in Cantonese and other southern varieties, where it carries a casual or intimate tone similar to "I" or "me." The character is composed of the "mouth" radical on the left, indicating its connection to sound or speech, and the phonetic component "羊" (yáng, meaning sheep) on the right, which hints at its pronunciation and semantic link to ovine noises.
