About
The character 譅 is a phono-semantic compound. Its semantic component 言 (speech) combines with the phonetic component 歰, which denotes a rough or uneven texture. Together, they convey the meaning of speaking with great difficulty, as in stuttering or hesitation. The phonetic element 歰 metaphorically extends the idea of physical roughness to obstructed speech, illustrating a lack of fluency.
