U+5DC7 "巇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
巇
U+5DC7 "巇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means a narrow, dangerous mountain pass or a steep, perilous gorge, often used metaphorically to describe a treacherous or difficult situation. Its radical is 山 (mountain), and it carries connotations of deep, risky defiles in classical contexts. This character is relatively rare in modern usage but can be found in literary or historical texts depicting rugged terrain or figuratively alluding to political or personal crises. In dictionaries, it is typically pronounced "xī" in Mandarin, and its structure visually suggests a mountain overshadowed by danger or narrowness.
