cjk unified ideograph-27a21

Han character 𧨡

31266/42720

𧨡 is recorded with the Mandarin reading chén, but current Chinese dictionary entries give it no clear meaning. In the Kangxi Dictionary’s supplement, it appears only as a sound note citing Wuyin Pianhai, a character dictionary from the Jin dynasty: “音臣” means it sounds like 臣, not what 𧨡 means.

Why does 𧨡 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.
