Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5637 "嘷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character historically used in classical texts, primarily meaning to roar, howl, or shout loudly, often associated with animals like wolves or with a fierce, commanding human voice. This character appears in ancient literary works, such as in descriptions of wild beasts or warriors, and its composition combines the mouth radical (口) indicating speech or sound, with a phonetic element hinting at its pronunciation. Though largely obsolete in modern Mandarin, it persists in specialized lexicons and traditional writing, reflecting the rich, archaic vocabulary of the Chinese language.
