U+934C "鍌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+934C "鍌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically complex Chinese character that appears in classical texts and older dictionaries. Pronounced as "xiǎn" in modern Mandarin, the character is composed of the metal radical "金" (jīn, meaning gold or metal) on the left, combined with the phonetic component "𠂉" (a variant of "人" or other elements) and "口" on the right, though its exact etymology and usage remain somewhat obscure. It is primarily encountered in ancient literature, personal names, or specialized historical contexts, and is not commonly used in daily modern Chinese writing, making it a notable example of the vast inventory of infrequent CJK ideographs preserved in the Unicode standard.
