What 𱔒 means
Its reading follows the Vietnamese phrase around it. In thết khách, it writes thết, meaning to host or serve guests; in thánh thót, it writes thót, a light, clear ringing sound.
Nôm poems associated with Nguyễn Trãi, a 15th-century Vietnamese poet, include a cited thết example. An early collection of his poetry was prefaced around 1480 and later lost; a new compilation was printed in 1868. The thót reading also appears in an older poem collection, Bách vịnh.

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.
