U+57CF "埏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
埏
U+57CF "埏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily pronounced as "yán" or "shān" in Mandarin, and it carries meanings related to earth or boundaries, often signifying a limit, frontier, or the edge of a mound or field. In classical texts, it appears in contexts describing geographical features or extending boundaries, and it is composed of the radical "土" (earth, soil) on the left side, with the phonetic component "延" (extend) on the right, reflecting a link to the idea of stretching or reaching a limit. Historically and in modern usage, it is relatively rare, found in literary or specialized references rather than everyday vocabulary.
