U+954A "镊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+954A "镊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a pair of tweezers or small forceps, commonly used for grasping or plucking fine objects such as hairs or splinters. In modern Chinese, the character "镊" is frequently found in contexts like "镊子," which directly translates to tweezers, and it is employed in both everyday grooming and specialized medical or electronic assembly tasks. Its composition reflects the metal radical "钅" on the left, indicating its association with metallic tools, and the phonetic component "聂" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation as "niè" in Mandarin. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, enabling consistent representation across digital systems that support East Asian scripts.
