What 냬 means
It is a Korean ending for reporting a question.
-냬 shortens -냐고 해, roughly “asks whether….” In 밥 먹었냬, the speaker reports being asked if you ate.
Hangul was devised to write Korean speech and improve communication. Its creation is dated to 1443; an explanatory text appeared in 1446.
It carries grammar; the surrounding sentence supplies the tone.
If someone sent 냬 alone, ask for the surrounding words.

Questions people ask
1Why does 냬 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.
