Variant form of 糜

𪎖 is a historical written variant of 糜, whose meanings include thick rice gruel and, by extension, mush or rot. Old dictionaries link the forms rather than give 𪎖 a separate word meaning.

Text symbol

What 𪎖 means

It is a variant of 糜, with the same meanings.

糜 first named rice cooked into thick gruel; Chinese texts also use it for things crushed or rotten and for spending wastefully. The 3rd-century Chinese dictionary Guangya glosses 𪎖 as rotten. The 1615 Zihui character dictionary identifies it with 糜, and the 1716 Kangxi Dictionary repeats both notes.

Why does 𪎖 show as a box?

The font or app may lack its glyph.

The Unicode character set puts 𪎖 in an additional range for Han characters. A font without its glyph may show an empty box, a question mark, or a blank. The text may still contain 𪎖; only its visible form is missing.

Why does 𪎖 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.
