U+5D56 "嵖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
嵖
U+5D56 "嵖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used in written Chinese, where its pronunciation is typically "chá" in Mandarin. This ideograph primarily functions as a component in the characters for certain place names, most notably in "嵖岈山" (Chaya Mountain), a scenic area in Henan Province, China. The character itself is composed of a mountain radical on the left side, suggesting a topographical or geographic association, paired with a phonetic component on the right. Its usage is relatively rare and specific, appearing mainly in proper nouns and classical or regional contexts rather than in everyday modern vocabulary.
