What 𮇞 means
It began with finely selected rice.
The Han-era Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary, glosses 粹 as “not mixed” and analyzes 米 (“rice”) as the meaning component and 卒 as the sound component.
A Qing-era commentary traces the extension from selected rice to anything pure or fine.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𮇞 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension F 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.
