U+93A9 "鎩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鎩
U+93A9 "鎩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily means to maim or to disable, often specifically referring to injuring a bird's wings so it cannot fly, or more broadly to kill or reduce. It is composed of the metal radical "金" (jīn) on the left, indicating a connection to metal or weapons, and the phonetic component "殺" (shā) on the right, which conveys the core meaning of killing or destroying. This character is used in classical and literary Chinese contexts, appearing in historical texts and poetry, and its usage has diminished in modern everyday language, though it remains part of the CJK unified ideographs block for East Asian scripts.
