cjk unified ideograph-2a4ca

Character for Blackness

42187/42720

𪓊 is a Chinese character read yù in Mandarin, meaning “black or dark in appearance.” Its form combines 黑 (“black”) with 鬱 as the sound-bearing part. The Yùpiān, a dictionary compiled in 543, records that gloss; a Qing-era dictionary also records its variant 𪓉 as a name for 鬱壘 (Yùlǜ), a traditional Chinese door guardian.

Why does 𪓊 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.
