cjk unified ideograph-2a424

Wart character variant

42021/42720

𪐤 is an old form of 肬 (yóu), the Chinese word for “wart”; Taiwan's education ministry lists 疣 as standard. The Shuowen Jiezi (100 CE) calls it Zhouwen (an old script style), written with 黒 (“black”) instead of 肉 (“flesh”). The 5th-century Wenxin Diaolong, a book about writing, uses “hanging wart” as an image of excess. In 2024, Taiwan's CNS portal said the glyph was included in two default Windows 10 Chinese fonts.

Why does 𪐤 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
