U+78F4 "磴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
磴
U+78F4 "磴" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means a stone step or a flight of stone stairs, often used in the context of mountain paths or terraces. It is composed of the radical 石 (shi, meaning stone) on the left, indicating its relation to rock or stone, and the phonetic component 登 (deng, meaning ascend or climb) on the right, which hints at its pronunciation and connection to elevation. Commonly found in classical literature and modern Chinese, the character appears in words like 石磴 (shídèng) for stone steps and 磴道 (dèngdào) for a stone-paved mountain path. Its use evokes imagery of rugged, ascending trails in natural landscapes.
