U+78E7 "磧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
磧
U+78E7 "磧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "moraine" or "gravelly desert," referring to a stony, arid area or a riverbed filled with pebbles and stones. In classical texts, it often describes harsh, rocky landscapes in Central Asia or northern China, such as the Gobi Desert's gravel plains. This character is composed of the radical for "stone" (石) on the left, indicating its relation to rock or stone, and the phonetic component 責 (zé) on the right, which suggests the sound but not the meaning. It appears in historical records and modern Chinese in contexts related to geography and geology, though it is less common in everyday language.
