U+9575 "镵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
镵
U+9575 "镵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character composed of the metal radical (钅) on the left and a phonetic component on the right, and it is primarily used in classical Chinese texts to denote a kind of chisel or a sharp digging tool, often associated with ancient medical or agricultural implements. In modern usage, it appears infrequently and is largely considered a literary or historical term, retaining its specific meaning in reference to narrow, pointed instruments used for engraving or piercing. Its structure reflects the logographic principles of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified script, where semantic and phonetic elements combine to convey both meaning and pronunciation.
