What 㳰 means
㳰 is a rare variant of 溝 for ditches, drains, and waterways. Chinese dictionaries list 㳰 as a variant of 溝.
The word began as a term for field irrigation and drainage, then extended to waterways, moats, trenches, grooves, and the groove along a horse’s back. 溝 appears in Qin bamboo slips (narrow strips of inscribed bamboo) and Han clerical script (an early Chinese writing style).
Uncommon variant; modern Chinese usually writes the word as 溝 or simplified 沟.
If 㳰 appears as a box or blank, the font may lack support.

1Why does 㳰 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.
