Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+5CF6 "島" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents the concept of an island, often used in East Asian languages including Japanese and Korean alongside its simplified form 岛. Composed of the radical for bird (鳥) atop a base signifying a mountain or hill, the character visually evokes a landform rising from the water, a place where birds might rest. Its historical usage dates back to ancient Chinese script, appearing in early classical texts to denote isolated land masses, and it continues to be a common component in place names and geographic terms across the region.
