What 㪼 means
Its recorded meaning comes through a two-character expression.
The Taiwan Ministry of Education dictionary glosses 𣂞㪼 as 掣, “pull or drag”; another Chinese lexicon also lists hindering and snatching away.
Where does 㪼 appear in older dictionaries?
Its surviving trail runs through Chinese dictionaries.
The 2024 Taiwan Ministry of Education dictionary says 㪼 is absent from Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, and cites Jiyun and Leipian. The Song-era Leipian records 𣂞㪼.
