U+9562 "镢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
镢
U+9562 "镢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a type of traditional farming tool, specifically a hoe or a mattock, often used for digging or breaking up soil. Composed of the metal radical "钅" on the left and the phonetic component "厥" on the right, this character is primarily found in modern and historical Chinese texts, particularly those related to agriculture or rural life. Its meaning and structure reflect the common logographic pattern in CJK characters, where semantic and phonetic elements combine to convey both the tool's function and its pronunciation, which in Mandarin is "jué."
