U+935D "鍝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+935D "鍝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that is primarily used for its phonetic value rather than any common, standalone meaning. In modern Chinese, it is most frequently encountered as a component in the transliteration of foreign names and words, such as in the historical term "鍝" (pronounced like "yu" in Mandarin) which appears in the Japanese name "阿倍仲麻呂" (Abe no Nakamaro), where it represents a sound in the original Japanese. Its structure combines the metal radical "釒" (jīn) on the left with the phonetic component "禺" (yú) on the right, but it is not a standard, everyday character in contemporary Chinese writing and is rarely used outside of specialized contexts like historical texts or proper names.
