What 鮕 means
It is a fish character with disputed readings and glosses.
Taiwan’s Ministry dictionary identifies 鮕 with 𩷑; as of 2026, it says 鮕 is absent from Shuowen, an early Chinese dictionary.
Zdic calls 𩷑 the Shuowen form and links it to 鰋. Mandarin pinyin readings differ: the Ministry gives gǔ; Zdic and Wiktionary give gū. Wiktionary marks fish entrails or a type of fish as obsolete; Zdic says the meaning is unclear.
As of 2026, 鮕 has no fixed chat meaning; ask the sender for context.

1Why does 鮕 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.
