Text symbol

What 訤 means

It refers to speech judged discourteous or ill-mannered.

Taiwan's Ministry of Education character dictionary lists 誵 as the standard form and 訤 as its variant. It traces the gloss to Jiyun, a Chinese character dictionary from the Song dynasty. The earliest indexed example appears in a Song work; other indexed examples run from Song through Qing texts.

Is 訤 the same as 誵?

Dictionaries list 訤 as a variant spelling of 誵.

The Ministry dictionary gives 誵 the same discourteous-speech gloss. Other historical dictionary entries connect 訤 with 詉 and 拏 under additional readings; some linked senses involve clamorous speech or pulling and joining. These are lexical connections, not permission to replace one glyph with another in any text.

How do I type 訤?

Enter xiáo in a Mandarin input method, or use Cangjie YRKK.

For pinyin input, choose 訤 from the candidates returned for xiáo. Cangjie uses YRKK. If your input method omits it, look up 誵 in a character dictionary and confirm the spelling used by your source.

The Unicode Standard separates a Han character's identity from its typeface form. A locale-specific font may draw 訤 differently, but a changed outline alone does not make it a different character.

A dictionary-register character; give a short gloss when using it with casual readers.

Without context, its specific historical sense may be opaque.

Why does 訤 look different in different fonts?

Fonts can change its visible form, and locale-specific typefaces may draw a Han character differently. A changed outline does not by itself mean a different character.
