About
As a phono-semantic compound, 崃 (simplified) and its traditional form 崍 use the "mountain" radical 山 (shān) on the left to indicate a meaning related to peaks or topography. The right side, 来 (lái) in simplified script and 來 (lái) in traditional, provides only the pronunciation and does not carry its usual meaning of "to come". Created specifically as a proper noun, this character designates Mount Qionglai, a major mountain range in Sichuan province, and is rarely used outside this geographical reference.
