砡

In classical Chinese, 砡 describes stones gathered to an even height. A Han-era poem uses the pair 頵砡, and later dictionaries keep the level-topped sense. Japanese dictionaries also list そろえる (“to put in order”), but mark 砡 outside the standard-use kanji list.

What 砡 means

It names a stone heap with a level top.

Ma Rong’s Han-era poem 長笛賦 uses 頵砡 for stones packed together to a person’s height. Later lexicons—玉篇 and 廣韻—keep the physical sense, glossing 砡 as “level” and “level at the top.” The character is not recorded in 說文.

The left part is 石, the character for stone. The right part 玉 helps indicate sound in the character’s historical phonetic series; it does not make 砡 mean jade.

What does 砡 mean in Japanese?

Japanese dictionaries list it with the reading そろえる.

That Japanese verb means “to put things in order” or “line them up.” The same reference entry also lists ごく and ぎょく, readings inherited through Chinese. It classifies 砡 as a hyōgai kanji—outside Japan’s standard-use kanji list—so this is a specialist dictionary reading, not a sign of everyday use.

Literary and specialist: the Chinese sense belongs to classical writing, and Japanese lists it outside the standard-use kanji set.

Don’t read 玉 on the right as a promise that 砡 means jade.

Why does 砡 look different in another font?

A Japanese font fallback may show a Chinese regional glyph for a rare kanji. The encoded character remains 砡; Unicode describes this as a font issue, not a different character.
