U+5839 "堹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
堹
U+5839 "堹" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in historical and literary contexts, primarily meaning a mound, embankment, or boundary ridge in fields, often associated with agricultural land divisions or raised pathways between rice paddies. Its structure combines the earth radical 土 (tǔ) with the phonetic component 中 (zhōng), and while it appears in classical texts and some traditional dictionaries, it is now considered rare in modern Mandarin usage, with limited application in regional dialects or specialized terminology related to geography and farming.
