What 𖥨 means
It belongs to an older Bamum writing stage.
Bamum writing developed from 1896 to 1910 under King Ibrahim Njoya to record the Bamum language. Early signs stood for words or ideas as memory aids; later revisions formed a syllabary, a system with signs for syllables, used in records and administration. Phase E was one stage. “Mbeum” names this character, not an English message.
Archival script form; without Bamum context, its reading may be unclear.
Do not assume a recipient reads it as a reaction.

𖥨\16968Why is 𖥨 a box on my screen?
fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
