U+96AA "險" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
險
U+96AA "險" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "danger," "risk," or "steep" and is used in both traditional and simplified Chinese scripts, though the simplified form is "险." This ideograph often appears in compound words such as "危險" (wēixiǎn, meaning "dangerous") and "險峻" (xiǎnjùn, meaning "steep and rugged"). Its composition includes the radical "阜" (fù), associated with hills or mounds, suggesting a connection to treacherous terrain, while the phonetic component "僉" (qiān) contributes to its pronunciation. In East Asian typography, it is widely used in Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, and Korean contexts, representing a core concept in expressing peril or difficulty in both literal and figurative language.
