U+91DC "釜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
釜
U+91DC "釜" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a type of ancient cooking vessel, specifically a cauldron or pot with two handles, often made of iron or bronze, historically used for boiling water, cooking food, or even as a symbol of livelihood in East Asian cultures. This ideograph is composed of the radical for metal or gold, reflecting its original material, and the phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation, while its usage extends beyond literal cooking to appear in idioms and historical texts, such as the well-known Chinese saying "破釜沉舟" meaning to burn one's bridges or commit to an irrevocable course of action.
