Readings

Go-on: ずい (zui)^{←づゐ (dwi, historical)}
Kan-on: つい (tsui)^{←つゐ (twi, historical)}
Kan’yō-on: すい (sui)^{←すゐ (swi, historical)}
Kun: つむ (tsumu, 錘); おもり (omori, 錘)

Usage notes

Removed from the daily use Jōyō kanji by the Japanese government in 2010.[1]
As in historical on-readings ending in ゐ (-wi), such as ゆゐ (ywi) and るゐ (rwi), most dictionaries do not have すゐ (swi), つゐ (twi), and づゐ (dwi) as historical readings for 錘. According to historical data, the on-readings of 錘 are the modern すい (sui) and つい (tsui), as well as づい (zui). However, the Dai Kanwa Jiten has the ゐ (-wi) historical on-readings.

Noun

錘(おもり) • (omori)

Alternative form of 重り (omori, “weight; sinker”)
