U+5877 "塷" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
塷
U+5877 "塷" CJK Unified Ideograph is a Chinese character used in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) writing system, specifically classified as a unified ideograph under the Unicode standard. This character is predominantly found in historical or classical Chinese texts, where it functions as a variant form of the character for "salt marsh" or "brine," often related to the character "鹵" (lǔ). It is composed of the radical "土" (earth, soil) on the left side, indicating land or ground, and a phonetic component on the right, suggesting its pronunciation and meaning. In modern usage, it is rare and appears mostly in specialized or literary contexts, such as ancient references to saline soils or in dictionaries documenting historical characters.
