U+5D14 "崔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+5D14 "崔" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a surname, historically associated with one of the most prominent and influential clans in Chinese history, the Cui family of Qinghe and Boling, which produced numerous officials and scholars during the Han, Tang, and Song dynasties. In modern usage, "崔" is also a common family name in Korea, where it is pronounced "Choi" and ranks among the most frequent surnames in the country. Beyond its use as a surname, the character carries the literal meaning of "tall" or "lofty," often describing a mountain or a person of high stature, and appears in classical Chinese poetry and texts to evoke a sense of grandeur or elevation. The character is composed of the radical for "mountain" (山) on top, which suggests its semantic connection to height, and the phonetic component "隹" (short-tailed bird), which provides a clue to its pronunciation in Middle Chinese.
