What 繯 means
It means to wrap or bind; compounds can mean a loop or noose.
The written history of 繯 reaches at least the Warring States period: bronze inscriptions and Chu manuscript forms are recorded, along with a later small-seal form, an old standardized script style. The early Chinese character dictionary 《說文解字》 glosses 繯 as 落; its commentary explains that through 絡, meaning to wrap or enclose.
The meanings extend from wrapping silk to tying or fastening. Dictionaries also record a loop or noose sense and a woven-pattern sense in some regional usage.

Literary and specialized, with a grave noose-related sense in compounds.
The noose sense makes 繯 a poor joke without context; readers may take it as a reference to suicide by hanging.

2How is 繯 pronounced in Mandarin?
Mandarin Pinyin writes the reading huán, with a rising second tone: say huan while raising your pitch. The acute mark in Pinyin shows that rise.

No. That reading belongs to particular phrases such as 投繯; by itself, 繯 does not say that a person is in danger.
