U+58AF "墯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

墯

U+58AF "墯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to fall" or "to drop," and it conveys a sense of descent or degradation. It is composed of the radical 土 (earth, soil) and a phonetic component related to 惰 (lazy, negligent), which influences both its pronunciation (duò in Mandarin) and its extended meanings of laziness or decay. Although it is not a commonly used character in modern everyday writing, it appears in classical texts and classical Chinese poetry, where it can describe falling objects, moral decline, or the erosion of steadfastness. The character belongs to the CJK Unified Ideographs block in the Unicode standard, encompassing East Asian scripts that require encoded representation for digital text processing.
