U+552A "唪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+552A "唪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that is classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, and it is traditionally pronounced as "fěng" in Mandarin. Its primary meaning is to chant, recite, or intone, often in a religious or ritualistic context, such as chanting Buddhist sutras or scriptures aloud. The character is composed of the mouth radical 口, indicating speech or vocalization, and the phonetic component 奉, which contributes to both its sound and thematic association with offering or presenting. While less common in modern everyday Chinese, it retains specific usage in classical texts, poetry, and East Asian Buddhist terminology, where it describes the solemn act of vocalizing sacred words.
