CJK Compatibility Ideograph 2F8A1

㤺 is a compatibility encoding of 㤺, kept so an entry in Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 character set can round-trip through Unicode. Taiwan’s Ministry of Education variant dictionary lists 㤺 as a variant of 慌, which can mean fear or being flustered.

What 㤺 means

A compatibility encoding of 㤺.

CNS 11643 is Taiwan’s coded-character standard. Its sixth plane (a section of the character set) lists this source as T6-3130. Taiwan’s Ministry of Education variant dictionary cites older Chinese character dictionaries for 㤺, including Longkan Shoujing and Sisheng Pianhai.

Why does 㤺 normalize to 㤺?

Unicode normalization maps it to 㤺.

To preserve the encoded distinction through normalization, use the standardized sequence U+393A U+FE00. Showing the variant also requires a font that supports it.

Why does 㤺 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.
