Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+54AE "咮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in classical or literary contexts, representing a bird's beak or bill, and by extension, the act of pecking or the sound of a bird chirping. It was incorporated into the Unicode standard as part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, which covers characters from traditional and simplified Chinese, as well as historical usage in Japanese and Korean. This character appears in ancient texts such as the Shuowen Jiezi, where it is defined in relation to the mouth or vocalizations of birds. In modern Chinese, it is rarely used in everyday language, though it may appear in poetry, classical literature, or specialized zoological terms.
