What 𪽳 means
It writes Vietnamese yếu, meaning “weak” or “feeble.”
The word yếu describes a lack of strength, including in a person’s health or abilities. A Vietnamese Hán-Nôm dictionary—a reference for Chinese-character and Nôm writing—lists this graph for yếu đuối (“weak, feeble”).
Why is this a Vietnamese character?
Chữ Nôm adapted Chinese characters to write Vietnamese.
The script’s beginnings are debated; a stone inscription dated 1343 is a secure early example of it in use. Chữ Nôm carried Vietnamese vernacular literature. Since the 20th century, Quốc ngữ, the Latin-based Vietnamese script, has been the usual writing system.

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.
