U+927E "鉾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

鉾

U+927E "鉾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) primarily used in East Asian languages, including Japanese and Korean, where it represents the meaning of "halberd" or a long-handled weapon similar to a spear with a blade, often associated with ancient Chinese and Japanese weaponry. In Japanese, it is also used as a component in place names like "鉾田" (Hokota) and carries the on'yomi reading of "bō" or "mu" as well as the kun'yomi "hoko." This character belongs to the Kangxi radical 167 (metal or gold, 釒) combined with the phonetic component "矛" (spear), reflecting its construction as a phono-semantic compound. Its usage extends to historical and cultural contexts, where it appears in references to traditional arms and ceremonial objects.
