U+5CD7 "峗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5CD7 "峗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character composed of the mountain radical (山) on the left and the phonetic component 危 (wēi) on the right, often used in historical or literary contexts to denote a steep, rugged mountain or a perilous peak. Its pronunciation in modern standard Mandarin is wéi, and it appears in ancient texts such as the *Shanhaijing* (Classic of Mountains and Seas) where it refers to specific legendary mountains. The character embodies both a visual and conceptual sense of danger and elevation, linking the radical for mountain to the notion of precipitousness or instability. In contemporary usage, 峗 is largely obscure and does not form part of common vocabulary, though it may be encountered in classical studies or as a variant for other characters with similar meanings.
