噩
Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5669 "噩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily carries the meanings of "startling," "fierce," or "ominous," and it is often used in words related to bad news or distressing events, such as "噩耗" (è hào) meaning "bad news" or "噩兆" (è zhào) meaning "ominous sign." This character is composed of a radical related to "king" or "jade" at the top and a component associated with "crocodile" or "fierce" sounds below, reflecting its historical roots in describing fearful or shocking situations. In classical and modern Chinese, it is less common than many other ideographs but remains significant for its specific, stark connotations in literature and news reporting.
