About
The character 钧 (traditional form 鈞) is a phono-semantic compound related to metallurgy and measurement. Its left side uses the semantic radical 钅, derived from 金, indicating a connection to metal or weight. The right side, 匀, provides the phonetic element. Historically, 钧 denoted an ancient unit of weight equal to thirty jin, and also referred to the heavy rotating wheel used by potters to shape clay. In formal correspondence, it later became an honorific term to express respect for the person addressed.
