What 𘭀 means
Not necessarily; the script also spells words by sound.
The Khitan writing system uses logograms, signs that stand for whole words, and phonograms, signs that represent sounds.
Phonograms usually join into clusters to spell a word. A single character can therefore stand for a whole word or form only part of its spelling.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𘭀 show as a box on some devices?
It is recent: Unicode added it in version 13.0 (2020), and phones and computers whose fonts are older than that have nothing to draw it with. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
