U+5D8C "嶌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5D8C "嶌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that also appears in Japanese Kanji, primarily used as a variant of the character 島 (shima), meaning "island." It carries the same semantic essence as 島, denoting a landform that is surrounded by water, and is typically employed in proper nouns, place names, or classical literary contexts rather than in everyday modern writing. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph block, which standardizes encoding for East Asian scripts.
