nushu character-1b1ee

Nüshu syllable sign fu42

127/396

𛇮 is a Nüshu sign for the fu42 sound in Jiangyong, Hunan; it has no fixed English word translation. Women used this syllabic script for songs, letters and wedding messages; a coin from 1851–64 bears a sisterhood slogan. A 2004 study names 1931 as the earliest written report and records competing origin theories, including a proposed derivation from Chinese characters; by 2017 UNESCO described preservation and standardization work.

Why does 𛇮 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.
