Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5B70 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally means "who" or "which," often used in classical and literary contexts to pose questions or express uncertainty. It is composed of the radical 子 (child) combined with additional phonetic and semantic components, reflecting its origins in ancient Chinese script. In modern usage, "孰" appears less frequently in everyday conversation but remains common in formal writing, idioms, and classical texts, where it functions as an interrogative pronoun or a marker of rhetorical inquiry. This character is encoded in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block of Unicode, supporting its use in digital text across East Asian languages.
