U+942C "鐬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+942C "鐬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character composed of the metal radical 金 (jīn) on the left and the phonetic component 歲 (suì) on the right. It is known to function as a variant or alternative form of the character 鐬, meaning “bell” or “a kind of metal instrument,” though its usage in modern Chinese and Japanese is extremely limited, primarily appearing in classical texts or historical lists of variant characters. Its encoded value places it within the CJK Unified Ideographs block, representing a traditional logograph historically associated with bronze or metal objects, but it has no widely recognized modern definition or common application in contemporary writing.
