Chinese character 嬎

3343/20992

嬎 is an old Chinese character for a rabbit’s young, with later senses tied to reproduction. In documented regional speech, 嬎蛋 means “to lay eggs”; general Mandarin uses 下蛋 or 产卵. By itself, 嬎 needs context because those readings are far apart.

Text symbol

What 嬎 means

It names rabbit young and carries later reproductive senses. 《尔雅·释兽》, a classical Chinese guide to animals, uses 嬎 for a rabbit’s young; the work is broadly dated to the late Warring States–early Han. Later dictionaries also record senses about reproduction and producing many young. In regional speech, 嬎蛋 means “to lay eggs”; general Mandarin usually says 下蛋 or 产卵.

What if someone sends 嬎 by itself?

Ask what sense they mean; the bare character is ambiguous. It may point to the historical rabbit-young vocabulary or to the regional egg-laying expression. If it appears as a square, the font may lack this glyph; a CJK font with broader coverage may show it.

Classical dictionary senses meet regional speech; a bare 嬎 does not settle which one.

For general Mandarin, 下蛋 or 产卵 is clearer than 嬎蛋.

Why does 嬎 show as a box?

Your font may lack this glyph. Try a CJK font with broader character coverage; the box is a rendering substitute, not another meaning.
