Compatibility form of 𨵷

𨵷 represents the same written character as 𨵷, but at a separate Unicode code point. It was kept so text could move between Unicode and Taiwan's CNS 11643-1992 character set and back without losing its source entry. Unicode normalization can turn it into 𨵷 and erase that code-point distinction.

What 𨵷 means

It is the same written character as 𨵷, encoded separately.

Taiwan's CNS 11643 is a character-encoding standard. Unicode kept this separate code point so text could move between the two character sets and back without losing which source entry it came from. The code preserves an encoding distinction; it does not add a new word sense.

Why does 𨵷 change to 𨵷?

Normalization rewrites 𨵷 as 𨵷.

Normalization is software's way of making equivalent text use a consistent form. Because this mapping is canonical, NFC and NFD change it too, as do NFKC and NFKD. If the original CNS code point matters, preserve the input before normalization; afterward, the normalized text no longer identifies that source entry.

Why does 𨵷 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.
