Text symbol

What 𪸘 means

Its reading follows the text’s language. Chinese sources link it to 焌 and note Taiwanese names; Vietnamese dictionaries use khấu for a blaze.

The related form 焌 appears in Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary, glossed as kindling a fire. Zhouli, a ritual handbook, describes blowing tinder to heat a turtle shell for divination. Other dictionary senses of 焌 include putting out fire and hot-oil cooking. The exact glyph is attested in a 1985 Beijing dialect dictionary.

Unicode 13.0’s chart says fonts may draw its sample differently.

Why does 𪸘 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.
