𠮢

2979/42720

𠮢 is an old form of 右, the Chinese character for “right.” Its ancestor, 又 (“right hand”), appears in Shang oracle-bone inscriptions. The Chinese character dictionary Shuowen Jiezi records 𠮢 as a form of 右 and glosses 右 as “help,” linking a hand (又) and mouth (口). Today, 右 usually means “right,” while 佑 or 祐 write the help sense. You’ll mainly meet 𠮢 in historical or dictionary texts.

Why does 𠮢 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B 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.
