What 𣹎 means
𣹎 is a variant of 潠: spitting out a mouthful of liquid.
潠 is the head form, read sùn or xùn in Taiwan Mandarin. A supplement to Shuowen Jiezi, an old Chinese character dictionary, adds it as a water part plus a sound hint: “spit out held liquid.” Another dictionary also gives the sense “wash or scrub.”
The Hou Hanshu (“History of the Later Han”), a chronicle, dates a court rite to 31 CE: official Guo Xian spits wine three times to ward off a fire in Qi. That dates the event, not the variant glyph.
