What 𣟎 means
Read it as a historical written variant of 那.
The 1716 Kangxi Dictionary quotes 字彙補 (“Supplement to the Character Dictionary”) and equates 𣟎 with 那. In modern Chinese, 那 points to someone or something farther away: “that” or “there.”
The related form 𨙻 appears in the Eastern Han Shuowen Jiezi, an early character dictionary, as the name of a state in the west. In Tang poetry, 那 serves as a demonstrative, a word like “that” or “there.” This is the broader character family’s history; 𣟎 itself is recorded as a variant spelling of 那.
