Modifier Letter Cyrillic Small Yu

What 𞁉 means

It marks sound detail in Cyrillic phonetic notation. Phonetic transcription writes down how speech sounds. In Cyrillic notation, raised letters can mark a fleeting sound or a short transition into a vowel, much like superscripts in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), a system for writing pronunciation. A Serbian dialect study by linguist Aleksandar Belić documents this broader Cyrillic practice by 1905.

The exact reading depends on the author’s notation; it is not a syllable to pronounce by itself.

Why does 𞁉 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.
