Text symbol

What 𫖖 means

It is a verb for stretching an animal hide.

The traditional-form counterpart 𩏠 is read zhèng in Mandarin and glossed 張皮, literally “stretch hide.” 𫖖 shares that narrow craft sense: pulling an animal skin taut.

𩏠 is first recorded in the Guangyun, a Song-era Chinese dictionary organized by rhyme and completed in 1008. That dates the written record, not necessarily the character’s creation.

Why can 𫖖 appear as a box?

Your active font may lack this glyph. Because 𫖖 is a rare supplementary-plane Han character, the text can contain it even when no available font can draw it; the box is a display fallback.
