What 䀈 means
To preserve exact character conversion.
Unicode keeps this supplementary character for conversion to and from Taiwan's CNS 11643-1992 standard. 䀈 maps to 䀈, preserving the source character's identity.
What did 䀈 mean?
Old dictionaries record more than one sense.
The 1716 Kangxi Dictionary says 䀈 names a vessel and records 居䀈 as a red-haired, hedgehog-like beast in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, an old Chinese book about places and creatures. Those senses belong to 䀈.
Why does 䀈 become 䀈?
Normalization applies its canonical mapping.
Normalization standardizes Unicode text; both NFC and NFD change 䀈 to 䀈. Keep the original string before normalization if records must convert back to CNS 11643.

Questions people ask
1Why does 䀈 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.
