U+94ED "铭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+94ED "铭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily means "inscription" or "engrave," often referring to text carved on metal, stone, or other durable materials to commemorate a person, event, or achievement. In a broader cultural context, it conveys the idea of remembering something permanently or honorably, as seen in words like "铭记" meaning "to engrave on one's heart" or "to remember forever." This character combines the radical for metal or gold "钅" with the phonetic component "名," reflecting its historical connection to ancient bronze inscriptions and ceremonial dedications. It is commonly used in modern Chinese in terms related to memorials, mottos, and other lasting tributes, such as "铭文" for epigraphs or "座右铭" for personal maxims.
