Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+56A9 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character primarily encountered in Buddhist scripture transliterations, where it represents a Sanskrit syllable or sound, often corresponding to "va" or "ba" in phonetic contexts. Its structure combines the mouth radical (口) on the left, indicating its connection to speech or sound, with the complex phonetic component (縛) on the right. In modern Chinese and Japanese, this character is extremely uncommon, appearing almost exclusively in specialized religious texts or historical transcriptions rather than in everyday written language.
