What 𪀎 means
It writes sả, the Vietnamese name of a fish-catching bird.
Chữ Nôm took shape after Vietnam regained independence in 939, as scholars adapted Chinese characters and their parts to write Vietnamese words. Huình Tịnh Của's Đại Nam quấc âm tự vị (1895–1896) describes sả as a colorful fish-catching bird and calls the larger kind sả trâu.

1Why does 𪀎 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.
