Text symbol

What 㼬 means

It names a handled clay vessel. The earliest record is in the Yupian, a Chinese character dictionary from the Datong period of China’s Liang dynasty (535–546). Taiwan’s education ministry says the earlier Shuowen Jiezi dictionary omits it (as of 2026-09-09).

Historical vessel term.

If someone sends 㼬 alone, it gives little context; ask what word or source they mean.
