Water-splashing character

2281/6592

㳨 is a Chinese character dictionaries define as water splashing. It is a specialized lexical form, not a general splash reaction. Dictionaries differ on whether it is a variant of 𣴖 or an erroneous form.

Text symbol

What 㳨 means

It describes water striking or scattering. In written Chinese, 㳨 is a word for that action.

How is 㳨 related to 𣴖?

Dictionaries connect the forms but differ on 㳨’s status. One Chinese character-variant dictionary lists 㳨 as a variant of 𣴖; another dictionary calls 㳨 an erroneous form of 𣴖.

As of 2026-09-09, 𣴖 is not recorded in the Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary; later dictionaries organized by rhyme give its water-splashing sense.

Specialized lexical form; it fits a gloss, character study, or faithful quotation.

Without an explanation, a reader may see an unfamiliar character; a missing font can leave only a box.

Why does 㳨 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.
