Meanings and usage

verb: to squat; to crouch
蹲

2 candidate readings from Wiktionary (out of 3 originally listed for 蹲) — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. Dropped cung5, which the dossier attests only for a separate dialectal sense ('to sprain one's leg by landing abruptly'), not the core 'to squat' sense drafted here.
