U+57C9 "埉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+57C9 "埉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that forms part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, specifically encoded for use in East Asian written languages. Its radical is the "earth" or "soil" component (土), and it is composed of 10 total strokes, typically meaning a waterway or a channel for irrigation, often referring to a ditch or a trench in agricultural contexts. While not among the most common characters in modern Chinese, it appears in classical texts and regional usage, where it denotes a man-made watercourse or a low-lying area of land used for drainage. The character's pronunciation and precise meaning can vary slightly between Chinese, Japanese, and Korean readings, but its core association with earth and water control remains consistent across these languages.
