鑿
U+947F "鑿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character meaning "chisel" or "to chisel," representing a tool for carving or cutting hard materials like wood, stone, or metal. It is composed of the radical 釒 (metal) on the left, indicating its association with metallic objects, and the phonetic component 㫞 on the right, with its overall form and usage tracing back to ancient Chinese bronze inscriptions and classical texts such as the "Shuowen Jiezi" dictionary. In modern contexts, this character appears in both literary and practical references to craftsmanship, sculpture, and sometimes metaphorically in phrases describing precision or excavation.
