斤
U+65A4 "斤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "catty," a traditional unit of weight equal to approximately 500 grams or 1.1 pounds in mainland China, though its exact value historically varied across different Chinese-speaking regions. As a radical, it appears in other characters related to axes, cutting, or weight, deriving from its ancient pictographic origin depicting an axe, which symbolized the act of cutting or measuring. In modern usage, it remains common in contexts like market transactions, cooking recipes, and colloquial expressions, such as "斤斤计较" meaning "to haggle over every ounce."
