Can anyone identify these characters? I don't recognise them and Pleco OCR can't make heads or tails of them. They're from the name of a Taiwanese pop song.

趴 pa1, to lie on one's stomach: 趴下,不许动!

踢 ti1, to kick: 再动我把你脑袋摘下来当球踢!

And the term 趴踢 pati seems to be Taiwanese Sino-English for party.

 

(This is where Wenlin outshines Pleco since you can search for all characters containing one or more particular components.)

趴  - pā

踢 - tī

趴 - pā

趴 - pā

 

趴  seems to mean percent in Taiwan or lie prone in Mandarin 

踢 is to kick

 

Maybe it is supposed to used for the sounds? Don't know the meaning otherwise.

I found it in Pleco just not with the OCR.

Yes it does.If you look up 喜 and them move to the Chars tab it lists all characters with 喜 as component.

 

But I found the OP's characters using the drawing feature, but from there you can find all these things.

 

With the Outlier addon there is also Wenlin style (but not the same) explanation of characters.

Thanks, I didn't know that.

 

Wenlin has that feature, but it also lets you search using more than a single component. So if you're looking for 嘻, say, you can search for a character containing both 口 and 喜, and get 嘻.
