What 𭷘 means
A kind of ox, in its linked dictionary form. Chinese dictionaries read 𤙘 as Mandarin shōu and gloss it as a kind of ox. Its structure places 收 (shōu) above 牛 (ox): 收 supplies the sound, and 牛 points to cattle.
An encoding study pairs 𭷘 with 𤙘. Japan's MJ character collection catalogs this glyph under MJ059882; the wider collection supports administrative systems that preserve the exact writing of personal names.
