cjk unified ideograph-29ffc

Duck Character Variant

40957/42720

𩿼 is a historical written variant of 鴨, the Chinese character for duck, read yā in Mandarin. 《廣韻》 (1008), a Chinese dictionary organized by rhyme, lists 𩿼 as a form of 鴨, glossed “water bird”; a section added to the older character dictionary 《說文解字》 does too. 鳥 marks the bird; 甲 supplies sound and can move without changing meaning.

Why does 𩿼 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.
