Text symbol

What 仯 means

The reading and source change its sense.

Mandarin Pinyin is a Latin-letter reading guide: chào (“chow,” falling tone) means “child” or “small”; miǎo (“meow,” rising tone) links 仯 to 眇, “one-eyed.”

The Chinese dictionary 玉篇 (Yupian) records “small” in 543. A Yuan-period play uses chào for “stubborn”; 僬仯 can mean “startled” or “small-looking.”

Why does 仯 show as a box?

A display gap can leave a box.

The box is a font or software placeholder, not another character or meaning.

Why does 仯 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.
