U+58D5 "壕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
壕
U+58D5 "壕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "moat" or "ditch," often referring to a defensive trench or a deep channel, particularly in the context of fortifications or military structures. It is composed of the radical 土 (earth) on the left, indicating its connection to ground or soil, and the phonetic component 豪 (háo) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation. This character appears in classical and modern texts describing siege warfare, city defenses, or irrigation systems, and it remains in use today in historical and technical contexts, such as the phrase "战壕" (zhànháo) meaning "trench" in military terminology.
