U+9649 "陉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
陉
U+9649 "陉" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a narrow mountain pass or a defile, often used in geographical names or to describe a strategic route through rugged terrain. It is composed of the radical for a mound or hill on the left side, suggesting a landform, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation, typically as "xíng" in Mandarin. This character appears in classical texts and historical contexts, such as in the name of the ancient "Jingxing" pass, and it retains its relevance in modern Chinese for describing natural barriers or pathways in geography.
