Text symbol

What 𛇓 means

A spoken syllable, not a fixed word.

Its Jiangyong reading is transcribed tshiong35; “35” marks tone, or pitch. Nüshu writes local speech, so context supplies the intended word.

When was Nüshu first recorded?

A coin predates the first written report.

Some manuscript copies date to late Ming or early Qing, two Chinese dynasties. Rural women with limited schooling adapted Chinese-character forms for letters, songs, life stories and wedding messages. A bronze coin from China’s Taiping rebellion (1851–64) is the earliest known artifact; a Hunan survey first recorded Nüshu in 1933. Local revival efforts were under way by 2018.

Why does 𛇓 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.
