Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+5646 "噆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily means to hold something in the mouth or to contain, often implying the action of clamping down gently or biting without breaking the surface. In classical Chinese texts, it can also convey a sense of annoyance or resentment when used in certain expressions, such as in the phrase 噆噆 (zǎn zǎn), which describes the sound of chewing or muttering in dissatisfaction. This character is considered archaic and is seldom used in modern Mandarin, appearing mostly in historical literature or specialized linguistic studies rather than daily communication.
