㲹 is a historical variant of 氿, a character for dry ground by water or a spring emerging from the side. A later reform draft also proposed it for 激, so the source matters.

Text symbol

What 㲹 means

Read 㲹 in historical water texts as a variant of 氿.

氿 means dry soil by water or a spring emerging from the side. The Book of Songs, an old Chinese poetry collection, includes “有冽氿泉,” a verse about such a spring.

In 1977, the Second Simplification Scheme draft proposed 㲹 for 激 (“surge” or “excite”). It was withdrawn in 1986.

A historical form; context sets its use.

The 1977 reform draft proposed 㲹 for 激; that use belonged to the withdrawn proposal.

Why does 㲹 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.
