U+957C "镼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+957C "镼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character composed of the metal radical "钅" and the phonetic component "屈," and it primarily refers to a kind of iron or tool, often associated with a plowshare or a type of ancient iron implement. Its pronunciation in Mandarin is "jù," and while it appears in classical Chinese texts and historical dictionaries, it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, making it an obscure glyph within the CJK ideograph repertoire. This character exemplifies the extensive inventory of historical and specialized symbols encoded in Unicode for the purpose of preserving written heritage.
