cjk unified ideograph-271e8

Tiger markings character

29161/42720

If someone sends you 𧇨, read it as a Chinese character for the markings on a tiger’s coat. The early Chinese character dictionary Shuowen Jiezi glosses the related character 虨 as “tiger markings,” and character dictionaries list 𧇨 as another written form of 虨. It names the coat’s pattern; it is not a picture of a tiger.

Why does 𧇨 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.
