Text symbol

What 帓 means

Head cloth or belt; another reading is an old sock form.

In Mandarin pinyin, mò (like “moh,” falling tone) means head cloth; other lexicons add belt or tie. wà (like “wah,” same tone) means sock. The Yupian (玉篇), a Chinese dictionary compiled around 543, glosses it “head cloth”; the dictionary Shuowen Jiezi (說文解字) does not list it.

The Chinese classic Liezi (列子) uses 鞨巾 for a hair-binding cloth. A box means the font lacks 帓; it is text, not emoji.

Why does 帓 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.
