Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+55F1 "嗱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in Cantonese, where it functions as a particle or interjection. It is often employed to draw attention, express emphasis, or soften a suggestion, similar to saying "here" or "now" when handing something over or making a point. In Mandarin contexts, it can also serve as a phonetic component in loanwords or informal writing. The character combines the mouth radical (口) on the left, indicating speech or sound, with the phonetic element "拿" (ná), which contributes to its pronunciation as "ná" or "la" in different dialects.
