What 羢 means
It names fine wool from sheep.
Mandarin pinyin writes it róng, with the tongue tip slightly drawn back for the first sound and a rising pitch. A Yuan dynasty play uses 羊羢 for wool; Shuowen, an early Chinese dictionary, omits 羢. Later records keep the textile meaning.
羢 is a rare variant beside traditional 絨; simplified Chinese uses 绒. A blank box means the font lacks the glyph. A 2026 compatibility listing includes it in default fonts for Windows 10 and later.
Rare, textile-specific variant.
Use 絨 or 绒 for ordinary modern Chinese.

Questions people ask
1Why does 羢 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.
