U+5813 "堓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
堓
U+5813 "堓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily appears in classical or literary contexts, often representing the concept of a riverbank, shore, or the edge of a body of water, derived from its composition of the earth radical (土) combined with elements suggesting a boundary or ascent. Though rare in modern everyday Chinese usage, it has historical significance in poetry and geographic descriptions, where it evokes landscapes of riversides or elevated land near water. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is "àn," sharing phonetic and semantic ties with more common characters like 岸 (also meaning shore or bank), but 堓 specifically emphasizes the earthen or natural quality of the embankment.
