What 勫 means
It means “strong” or “healthy.” 類篇, a Song-era dictionary, glosses it as 健也.
The later Kangxi Dictionary repeats a gloss from the earlier dictionary 集韻; a Japanese kanji dictionary also gives “healthy.”
How is 勫 built?
番 is on the left; 力 is on the right.
Older dictionaries file it under 力; that is indexing, not proof of direct ancestry.
Can 勫 look different on devices?
Yes; its font can change its outline.
As of 2026, a Japanese kanji dictionary notes variation across computers, phones, and browsers.

Questions people ask
1Why does 勫 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.
