Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+559E "喞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in East Asian writing systems, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Its meaning relates to the action of chewing or the sound of chewing, and it is often associated with the concept of masticating or grinding with the teeth, as seen in its composition of the "mouth" radical combined with a phonetic component. In modern usage, it appears in specific literary or technical contexts, such as in descriptions of eating or in compound words, though it is less common than more basic characters. The character also has historical roots in classical texts, where it could denote a clicking or chirping sound in addition to chewing.
