U+9293 "銓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
銓
U+9293 "銓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character composed of the metal radical 金 on the left and the phonetic component 全 on the right, traditionally meaning to weigh, measure, or select, particularly in the context of evaluating qualifications or choosing officials. It appears in classical texts such as the records of imperial examinations where it denotes the process of assessing candidates, and in modern usage it is found in words like 銓衡, referring to careful judgment or selection. Its Japanese reading in the On'yomi system is "sen," and it is used sparingly in contemporary writing, primarily in formal or historical contexts.
