cjk unified ideograph-221ca

Variant form of 紹

8651/42720

𢇊 is a historical variant of 紹 (simplified Chinese 绍), whose core sense is “continue” or “hand down”; the standard form also means “introduce.” The Eastern Han Chinese character dictionary Shuowen Jiezi, completed in 100 CE, records an old form built with 邵 and an alternate gloss about binding thread tightly. Related forms appear in bronze inscriptions as family names and personal names. Read 𢇊 as a variant spelling of 紹.

Why does 𢇊 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.
