U+91EF "釯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+91EF "釯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that appears in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, a standard range of characters shared across these East Asian writing systems. This specific ideograph is composed of two components: the radical "釒" (jīn), meaning gold or metal, on the left, and the phonetic component "卬" (áng) on the right. Historically and in modern usage, the character "釯" is relatively rare and obscure, with its meaning often associated with a type of metal or a specific edge or blade, though its exact semantics can vary based on context and regional dictionaries. It is not commonly used in everyday written language but may appear in specialized texts, archaic literature, or as a variant form of other characters within the CJK repertoire.
