What 䁤 means
Its Mandarin readings point to three distinct eye-related senses. One describes tearful eyes, another eyes held upright, and the third an angry or contemptuous stare. The surrounding phrase or quoted source identifies the intended sense.
Two early records are in Chinese rhyme dictionaries from the Song dynasty: Guangyun (廣韻), published in 1008, and Jiyun (集韻), completed in 1039. These books grouped characters by sound to help readers look up pronunciations and compose verse; Jiyun also recorded multiple readings and variant forms.
Should you send 䁤 by itself?
Usually not without a gloss or clear quotation. Because its readings differ, a bare 䁤 leaves the recipient guessing. It works in a quotation or character discussion; nearby words can identify the intended sense.
Dictionary-like and literary; in an everyday message it reads as an unexplained Chinese character.
Don't assume anger: the hostile stare is only one of its three readings.

1Why does 䁤 show as a box?
A font without this character may substitute a box, while fonts that include it can draw it differently. As of 2026, Unicode chart glyphs are references rather than required designs, so outlines can vary.
