U+6E2C "測" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
測
U+6E2C "測" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to measure," "to survey," or "to infer." It is composed of the radical for water (氵) on the left, suggesting a connection to depth or flow, and the phonetic component "側" on the right, which contributes the pronunciation. This character is used in various East Asian languages, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, appearing in terms related to measurement, testing, and speculation, such as "測試" (to test) and "測量" (to survey). Historically, it evokes the idea of gauging or evaluating unknown quantities, a concept deeply rooted in classical Chinese philosophy and practical applications like land surveying and divination.
