U+2ED5 "⻕" CJK Radical Mound One Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⻕
U+2ED5 "⻕" CJK Radical Mound One is a variant of the standard Chinese radical meaning "mound" or "hill," traditionally numbered as radical 170 in the Kangxi system. It specifically represents the abbreviated, left-hand form of this radical that appears in compound characters, often simplified from the full form "阜" to a narrow shape resembling three stacked peaks. Used exclusively as a component in East Asian scripts such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, this radical imparts meanings related to elevated terrain, earthworks, or barriers, and is found in characters like "阴" (yīn, shade) and "阳" (yáng, sun). Its inclusion in the CJK Radicals Supplement block ensures standardized encoding for historical and modern text processing systems.
