U+9371 "鍱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

鍱

U+9371 "鍱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an East Asian logogram primarily used in traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean contexts, where it generally refers to a thin sheet of metal or a foil, often associated with the process of hammering or spreading metal into a flat plate. This character is composed of the radical "金" (jin, meaning gold or metal) on the left, indicating its material association, and the phonetic component "枼" (ye or diesha) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation and originally conveyed the idea of a thin, flat object. In classical Chinese texts, it appears in descriptions of metalworking and armory, such as the making of armor plates or decorative metallic leaves, while in modern usage it remains a specialized, largely literary term rather than a common everyday character.
