What 𱎅 means

It is a local Chinese place-name character; one reading means “corner.”

A Chinese dictionary gives the reading gè with the meaning “corner,” and lists luò and wā for Guangdong place names. A 2017 Unicode submission records 𱎅 in place names in Fulin Town, Yun'an County, Yunfu, Guangdong. A place-name character table from 2000 records a related form read luò; Unicode reviewers in 2024 treated that form as a variant of 𱎅.

How should I read 𱎅 in a message?

Ask which place name or local reading is intended.

The character has several recorded readings, while its documented use is tied to local place names. Its appearance alone does not tell you which pronunciation the sender intends.

Why does 𱎅 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
