U+5868 "塨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5868 "塨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in traditional and simplified writing, though it is not among the most common or frequently encountered hanzi. Its meaning is generally associated with the concept of a "foundation" or "base," often appearing in contexts related to construction or earthworks, such as a mound or a solid ground. The character itself is composed of the radical "土" (earth) on the left side, indicating its connection to soil or land, and the phonetic component "共" (meaning "together" or "common") on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation, typically read as "gōng" in Mandarin. Due to its niche usage, it may be encountered in classical texts, technical descriptions of terrain, or as a component in certain place names or surnames, rather than in everyday language.
