U+94E9 "铩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+94E9 "铩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means to kill, slaughter, or destroy, and is also used to refer to a type of ancient Chinese weapon, specifically a long spear or lance with a sharp metal tip. In traditional texts, it carries connotations of violent action or annihilation, appearing in classical literature and historical records. The character is composed of the metal radical "钅" (gold or metal) on the left, indicating its association with metal tools or weapons, and the phonetic component "杀" (to kill) on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation and core meaning. Today, it remains in use in modern Chinese, particularly in formal or literary contexts, though it is less common in everyday speech.
