U+9397 "鎗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鎗
U+9397 "鎗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character traditionally meaning spear, lance, or javelin, and it also refers to a sharp point or weapon made of metal. Its modern usage has largely been replaced by the character 枪 in simplified Chinese, but it still appears in classical texts, historical contexts, and in some compound words or proper names, particularly in traditional Chinese and Japanese kanji. The character is composed of the semantic radical for metal on the left and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its original association with metal-tipped weapons.
