Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5620 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily functions as a sound, onomatopoeia, or transliteration character, often used in written Chinese to represent a sharp or abrupt noise, such as a creak or a sudden exclamation. In Japanese Kanji, it is rarely used but can appear in contexts related to sound or as a variant of the character "嘎" (gā in Mandarin), which carries similar phonetic and colloquial meanings. Its composition includes the mouth radical (口) on the left, indicating its association with speech or sound, and a phonetic component on the right. While not a common high-frequency character, it is included in the Unicode standard to support historical, literary, and specialized textual usage across East Asian languages.
