What 𣡿 means
Read 𣡿 through its link to 䂎, a spear-like weapon. Taiwan's CNS 11643 entry gives the Mandarin readings zuǎn and cuān; those syllables tell you how to pronounce the character, not two different meanings.
The dictionary trail starts with citations to the History of Northern Dynasties and the Book of Sui, Chinese dynastic histories, and later includes the History of Yuan. Their passages keep 䂎 in military contexts: a fire weapon, bladed weapons, and a polearm with a halberd-like head. This traces the meaning of 䂎, not the first use of this exact spelling, 𣡿.
