What 㪏 means
Its dictionary gloss is “to break or destroy.”
The Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese character dictionary compiled during the Han dynasty around 100 CE, glosses it as “to destroy.” It analyzes the character as 攴 plus 卑: 攴 is the meaning-bearing part linked to action, while 卑 supplies the sound.
