What 啣 means
It maps to 啣, a variant of 銜.
The Chinese dictionary Shuowen Jiezi, completed around 100 CE, defines 銜 as a horse’s iron bit. Its meaning also extends to holding objects in the mouth and keeping feelings inside; 啣 is a later written form for those senses.
Why does 啣 map to 啣?
To preserve Taiwan’s CNS 11643 entry during conversion.
CNS 11643 is Taiwan’s coded-character standard. Its Plane 6 position 3D7C maps to 啣, which Unicode maps to 啣; conversion back to CNS can recover the source entry.

1Does Unicode normalization change 啣?
Yes. Every Unicode normalization form rewrites 啣 as 啣. The underlying character remains, but the exact CNS mapping is lost; this code point matters when preserving that source identity.
