What 嶨 means
It describes a mountain strewn with large stones. The earliest dictionary entry is in the Han period’s Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary: 山多大石也, a mountain with many large stones. The entry treats 山 as the meaning part and a shortened 學 as the sound clue.
A Tang poem uses it for rugged Ba mountain terrain. A 2017 list of Chinese dialect characters records the same terrain sense in Wenzhou. The related dictionary graph is 礐; 峃 is the simplified form of 嶨 and appears in Zhejiang place names such as 峃口.

Literary, dialectal, or part of a place name; it belongs in Chinese text, quotations, regional writing, or named places.
