What 翆 means
No: 翆 is a variant form of 翠.
翠 named the kingfisher and its feathers before it named blue-green colour. The oldest evidence surfaced here is a Warring States bronze form of 翠.
Look at the lower half: 翆 has 卆 where 翠 has 卒. Keep 翆 only when you are preserving a spelling; otherwise use 翠.
