Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+4E24 "两" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "two" or "both," often used as a measure word or quantifier in contexts involving pairs or groups of two, such as in 两个 (two units) or 两年 (two years). In traditional Chinese culture, it also historically referred to a unit of weight called the tael, approximately 50 grams, and appears in compound words like 两边 (both sides) or 两岸 (both shores). Its structure combines the radical for "one" and "person" with internal elements, reflecting a semantic link to duality and balance, and it is widely used in written Chinese across simplified and traditional scripts.
