Text symbol

What 䬡 means

It names an upward flight in a variant form of 翥.

The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese dictionary, defines 翥 as rising in flight. Its entry analyzes 羽 (“feather”) as the meaning part and 者 as the sound part, and records a regional use in Chu, an ancient Chinese state. The phrase 鸞翔鳳翥 pictures birds soaring; later, it became praise for a calligrapher’s vigorous, graceful brushwork.

A literary written form, suited to source-faithful quotations and discussion of classical Chinese.

Why does 䬡 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.
