What 𣿬 means
It has no single secure everyday meaning. As of 2026, 𣿬 lives in separate source traditions rather than one settled modern word.
One trail is a manuscript. A calligraphy study records 𣿬 in a Dunhuang copy of the Lotus Sutra — old manuscripts sealed in a northwest China cave library — where it stands for 漂, the everyday character for “drift.” It is a variant writing, not a separate word: the study reads the reshaped form as a scribe's way of balancing 漂's heavy right side.
The other trail is Hong Kong. Its supplementary character set, HKSCS-2016, lists 𣿬 under the source code H-FAC3, and a 2017 restaurant name, 中華𣿬館, used it as a form of 匯/滙 — “gathering,” waters running together.
How is 𣿬 pronounced?
Read it from the source, not the shape. Taiwan's character standard CNS 11643 gives Mandarin mǒu3; a Hong Kong Cantonese lookup gives wui6 and marks the sense uncertain. Neither reading travels — use the one your source uses.
Use it only when the source calls for it.
If someone sends you 𣿬 alone, ask what they mean to quote: a manuscript, a Hong Kong name, or a font test. In ordinary chat it is not a reliable shorthand — the other person may read a different history into it.
Archival or local-name register; it reads as opaque in ordinary chat.
Send it alone only if the recipient already knows which source you mean.

2Why does 𣿬 sometimes show as a box?
Font coverage. It sits in CJK Extension B, a rare later block; the font needs that block's glyphs to draw it.
Why can't I find 𣿬 in my dictionary?
It's rare. Most dictionaries cover the everyday set; Extension B characters like this one mainly appear in specialist lists.
