Character for Head

38115/42720

𩓢 is recorded with the Mandarin reading gǎo and the gloss “head.” The 1615 Ming dictionary 字彙 gives that entry; the 1671 Chinese dictionary Zhengzitong calls 𩓢 a mistaken form of 顆. The Shuowen dictionary glosses 顆 as “small head”; the 1716 Kangxi Dictionary also records 顆 as a counter for small round things and repeats the 字彙 gloss for 𩓢. The dictionaries preserve two different accounts of 𩓢.

Why does 𩓢 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.
