Yì Variant Character

1199/20992

劮 is an old written form for a classical word associated with getting away, being lost, and being at ease. In Mandarin it sounds like “ee” with falling pitch; modern Chinese usually writes 逸. A box-shaped display may mean the font lacks 劮.

Text symbol

What 劮 means

Its classical senses stretch from escape to ease and leisure. In Mandarin, the syllable sounds like “ee” with a falling tone. Oracle-bone inscriptions (early writing carved on bone and turtle shell) and bronze inscriptions preserve older forms of 逸; 劮 is a later written variant. Modern Chinese usually uses 逸; keep 劮 when reproducing an older spelling or exact source.

Why does 劮 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.
