cjk unified ideograph-29f8a

Fish-name character

40843/42720

𩾊 is a simplified variant of 䱬, an old Chinese character for a kind of fish. The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, glosses 䱬 as “a fish” and analyzes its parts: the fish element marks the category, while the other part supplies the sound. Modern Mandarin dictionaries give 䱬 the reading xū.

Why does 𩾊 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.
