Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+9EBC "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character used in written Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, primarily functioning as a suffix or interrogative particle. It is most commonly associated with the Chinese word "shénme" (什么 in simplified form) meaning "what," and appears in phrases like "zhème" (这么) meaning "so" or "such." In historical and literary contexts, it also conveys a sense of smallness, insignificance, or approximation, and its simplified counterpart is often rendered as "么" in mainland Chinese script, though it remains widely used in traditional texts and across different East Asian writing systems.
