U+55C8 "嗈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+55C8 "嗈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character found in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block. It primarily functions as a seldom-used, classical character often associated with the sound of sighing or a gentle, murmured tone in literary Chinese texts. Its structure combines the mouth radical (口) on the left, indicating a relation to speech or sound, with a phonetic component on the right, and it does not belong to the common vocabulary of modern Standard Chinese. This character appears mostly in historical or poetic contexts, where it serves to evoke a subtle auditory nuance.
