What 𖧅 means
It is a Phase-E Bamum sign named Nae. King Ibrahim Njoya began developing Bamum writing in 1896. Early signs included pictures and whole-word signs used as memory aids; later revisions reduced and reassigned them.
Phase E mixed signs for whole words and sounds. Phase F moved toward writing syllables; Phase G is modern Bamum. Later phases could reuse shapes for other sounds or meanings, so this historical sign is not interchangeable with a modern one.
Historical and specialist: Phase E is an earlier form; Phase G is modern Bamum.

1Why does 𖧅 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
