What 𡲢 means

In Cantonese, a Chinese language, 𡲢 is a blunt word for “poop.” Its Jyutping reading is ke1, roughly “keh” spoken on a high, level pitch. Cantonese dictionary entries checked 2026-09-22 list this excrement sense.

The written form joins 尸, a meaning component, with 茄, which supplies the sound. That makes 𡲢 an alternative written form for this Cantonese word. Elsewhere, 茄 begins 茄子, the Chinese word for eggplant; older dictionaries also record a lotus-stem sense.
