U+9656 "陖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9656 "陖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) that primarily functions as an adjective or verb, meaning "steep," "precipitous," or "to rise abruptly," often used in classical or literary contexts to describe rugged terrain or a high, sheer cliff. It is composed of the radical "阝" (left, meaning a mound or hill) and the phonetic component "夋" (jun), and it is also an ancient variant of the more common character "峻" (jùn), sharing the same sense of steepness. This character is encoded in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of Unicode, representing a part of the shared writing system used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages, though its usage in modern texts is rare, found mostly in historical or literary works such as poetry or geographical descriptions.
