U+9A57 "驗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+9A57 "驗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese ideograph commonly used in East Asian languages including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, where it carries the primary meaning of "to examine," "to test," or "to verify." This character is composed of the radical for "horse" (馬) on the left side, indicating its historical connection to the checking of horses or equine activities, and a phonetic component on the right. In modern usage, it appears in words such as "經驗" (experience) and "檢驗" (inspection), and it is also employed in formal and technical contexts like scientific verification or legal validation. While simplified Chinese replaces this character with "验," the traditional form "驗" remains prevalent in regions such as Taiwan and Hong Kong, as well as in classical literature and calligraphy.
