Text symbol

What 殱 means

It means “wipe out”; 殱 is a variant of 殲.

The related form 殲 appears in citations associated with the Spring and Autumn tradition as a verb for destroying a group. During the Eastern Han, the Shuowen Jiezi, an early dictionary of Chinese characters, glossed 殲 as making something wholly disappear.

Stark and violent; its core sense is extermination.

On its own, it can sound like a threat to wipe someone out.

Why does 殱 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.
