Han character 𫡣

𫡣 is a historical written form of 乂. The older character means “mow or cut weeds,” and its shape is interpreted as a cutting tool, perhaps a sickle; later meanings include “govern” and “bring into order.”

What 𫡣 means

It is linked to early Chinese bronze inscriptions. The Yin and Zhou were ancient Chinese dynasties; their bronze inscriptions are texts cast or engraved on ritual vessels. An index to this material records 𫡣 as a form of 乂.

Why does 𫡣 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension E block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
