U+936E "鍮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鍮
U+936E "鍮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily meaning "brass" or "a type of metal," often referring specifically to a copper-zinc alloy. It is composed of the radical "金" (metal, gold) on the left, indicating its association with metals, and a phonetic component on the right that aids in pronunciation. Historically, this character has been used in classical Chinese texts and in modern contexts to describe metalwork or objects made of brass, such as utensils, ornaments, or ceremonial vessels. While less common in everyday simplified Chinese, it remains a recognized part of the traditional Chinese character set, appearing in historical literature and specialized metal nomenclature.
