U+5D46 "嵆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5D46 "嵆" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character (hanzi) that belongs to the set of CJK Unified Ideographs, which encode characters used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages. This particular glyph is composed of a mountain radical (山, representing a mountain or something pertaining to mountains) combined with another component, and historically it has been used as a variant or alternate form of the more common character "嵇" (U+5D47). The character "嵇" often appears in the surname of the famous 3rd century Chinese scholar and poet Xi Kang (嵇康), and is also associated with the toponym of Mount Ji (嵇山) in ancient texts. Due to its rarity, U+5D46 is not commonly employed in modern writing, but it is preserved in specialized dictionaries and digital text standards for historical and academic purposes.
