U+54AA "咪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+54AA "咪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used as a phonetic particle, appearing in loanwords and onomatopoeia, most famously as the second syllable in the transliteration of "Mickey Mouse" (米奇 Mǐqí is the first part, but 咪 is used in names like 米妮 Mǐnī for Minnie Mouse). It also functions as a meowing sound for a cat in comic dialogue or casual writing, particularly in the phrase 猫咪 (māomī) meaning "cat." While its core meaning relates to a small cat or a charming sound, it is not a high-frequency standalone word in modern Chinese, yet it remains recognizable due to its pop culture and linguistic associations.
