U+5580 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5580 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a phonetic component in transliterations of foreign words, most notably in the name "喀什" representing the city of Kashgar in Xinjiang, China. Morphologically, it is composed of the radical 口 (mouth) on the left, indicating its connection to speech or sound, and the phonetic component 客 (ke) on the right. In modern Chinese usage, "喀" can also serve as an onomatopoeia for the sound of coughing, vomiting, or a sharp noise, similar to the English "cough" or "ack." Its meaning remains largely tied to sound reproduction, making it a versatile character for phonetic and mimetic purposes in written Chinese.
