What 𮛝 means
The source document decides which reading applies.
SAT is the searchable text database for the Taishō Buddhist canon, a Japanese-edited collection printed in 1924–1934. Its Unicode project proposed Han characters missing from earlier character sets so digital texts could preserve printed forms. A 2016 Unicode chart labels the SAT source 跼 (“to hunch or crouch”). In 2021, Unicode’s East Asian ideograph group linked a form from the Dictionary of Old Zhuang Characters to the same code point; a source table lists it as 跛 (“to limp”). Old Zhuang characters were used to write the Zhuang language. These are source-specific records, not interchangeable readings.
