What means
Type 2EBFB, then use your editor’s Unicode hex shortcut.
In 2026, Word converts 2EBFB with AltX; some French- and German-language editions use AltC. GNOME/GTK uses CtrlShiftU, then the value, then Space or Enter. The built-in macOS Unicode Hex Input method stops at four digits, so it cannot enter this five-digit value.
What does mean?
It belongs to the 偵 family: ask, watch secretly, investigate.
The Eastern Han Chinese dictionary Shuowen Jiezi glosses 偵 as “ask.” The Book of the Later Han, a history of Han China, and a text from the Jin dynasty use it for secretly watching or investigating.
The Kangxi Dictionary, a Chinese reference book published in 1716, records 𠏄 as a variant of 偵; is a simplified form of 𠏄.
