U+5616 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to make a clicking or clucking sound with the tongue," often used to express disapproval, annoyance, or surprise, as in the phrase "嘖嘖" (zézé). It is also employed in Classical Chinese as a particle of interjection or emphasis. The character is composed of the radical "口" (mouth) on the left, indicating speech or sound, and the phonetic component "責" (zé) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation. In modern usage, it appears in both written and digital contexts, particularly in Traditional Chinese, where it conveys a subtle, expressive tone in dialogue or narration.
