U+5887 "墇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5887 "墇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in traditional and classical texts, where it functions as a variant of the more common character "障" meaning to block, obstruct, or create a barrier. Its structure combines the radical for earth or soil on the left, with a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its semantic association with barriers made from earth, such as walls or dikes. In modern usage, it is largely obsolete in standard Mandarin Chinese, but it may appear in historical documents, poetry, or calligraphy, where it conveys a sense of raising a defensive or obstructive boundary.
