What 迗 means
The documented gloss belongs to 迗逇. The compound means “to defy heaven and earth,” while an older dictionary marks its sense unclear. That does not establish a standalone translation for 迗.
A Liao-period Chinese dictionary, 龍龕手鏡 (Longkan Shoujing), records it among obscure characters and Buddhist vocabulary. A Song-dynasty reprint retitled the work 龍龕手鑑 (Longkan Shoujian).
Questions people ask
1Why does 迗 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.
