What 𛆳 means
It records a Jiangyong spoken syllable.
Its Jiangyong reading is romanized as mwe13 (the digits mark tone); it can stand for 不 (“not”) or 未 (“not yet”), depending on the sentence.
How did Nüshu develop?
It adapted Chinese-character forms to Jiangyong speech.
Traditionally, rural women in Jiangyong with little schooling used it for letters, songs, and life stories. “Third-day books”—wedding wishes given to brides three days after marriage—were another use.
A bronze coin from China’s Taiping Rebellion (1851–1864) bears the oldest known inscription, about women as one family. By 2018, local and national authorities supported revival efforts.

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.
