What 𪿴 means

In Hakka, a Chinese language, 𪿴 means a house pillar. A 1922 dictionary pairs it with 杉 and gives the Xingning pronunciation as sha1; Xingning is a city in Guangdong, China.

Yang Ying’s Congzheng Shilu (a record of military campaigns) uses 𪿴 in 大𪿴渡, a ferry crossing in Sidu, a town in Zhao’an County, Fujian. This section covers 1655–1656; 𪿴 is part of the place name.

Why does 𪿴 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.
