U+94E4 "铤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
铤
U+94E4 "铤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily functions as a noun meaning an ingot or a bar of gold or silver, often in the context of ancient Chinese currency where such metal bars were used as a form of money. It can also be used as a verb meaning to rush forward swiftly or to gallop, deriving from its alternative reading and usage in classical texts like the idiom “铤而走险,” which describes taking a risk or making a desperate move when there is no other option, much like a person running in haste. In modern Chinese, the character is less common in daily speech but remains relevant in historical discussions of metal trade and literary expressions of urgency.
