Text symbol

What 廀 means

廀 is an old written variant of 廋, with classical senses.

In the Western Han poem collection 九叹 (Nine Laments), attributed to Liu Xiang, 山廀 names a mountain recess. A commentary on the classical book Mencius also uses 廀 in a line about attendants concealing something.

Archaic and specialist; the classical passage supplies the context for its sense.

Why does 廀 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.
