What 俰 means
It is a rare character listed with the sense of harmony or peace.
Chinese dictionaries gloss 俰 with 和, meaning harmony or peace. A Japanese character dictionary gives the reading カ (ka) and meanings such as becoming calm or softening; these dictionary entries do not establish everyday use.
A 2024 study places its earliest dictionary entry in the Guangya, an early Chinese dictionary attributed to Zhang Yi of the Wei period. It reports no examples on excavated objects or in surviving texts. The study also rejects a proposed link to a Warring States-era bamboo slip, a strip of writing bamboo: it reads the unusual form there as a copyist's error in 和, not proof that 俰 was coined to mean “human harmony.” For Chinese Cangjie input, enter OHDR, then choose 俰 from the candidate list.

1Why does 俰 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.
