cjk unified ideograph-2b32c

Brief-Glance Character

3117/4154

The Chinese character 𫌬 means catching sight of something in a brief, unintentional glance; its Mandarin pinyin reading is piǎo. It is a simplified form of 𧢄, shaped by analogy with other characters. The older form appears in the Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary completed by 100 CE; Duan Yucai, a scholar of China’s Qing dynasty, says it was still used in everyday speech in his day.

Why does 𫌬 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.
