Compatibility form of 𦇚

153/542

𦇚 is a legacy text-conversion form linked through 𦇚 to the Chinese character 彞, whose traditional meanings include an ancestral-rite vessel and a rule or norm. It exists for round-trip conversion with a Taiwan character set, but Unicode normalization folds it into 𦇚.

Text symbol

What 𦇚 means

Its mapped counterpart is 𦇚, an old form of 彞.

Chinese historical dictionaries identify 𦇚 as an old variant of 彞. The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, describes 彞 as a vessel used in ancestral rites; the same character also means a rule or norm. A quotation from the Liu Xiong stele preserves the 𦇚 form in an inscription.

Why does 𦇚 become 𦇚?

Unicode normalization maps it to its canonical equivalent.

The Unicode chart lists this as Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 position T5-7340, preserving round-trip conversion between that standard and Unicode.

NFC, NFD, NFKC, and NFKD all fold 𦇚 into 𦇚; after normalization, the separate compatibility code point is gone.

Why does 𦇚 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
