What 𘦲 means

It is a reference piece used within Tangut characters. Tangut components help scholars index characters and describe their structure in ideographic description sequences (IDS), written formulas showing how pieces fit together. 𘦲 is not a complete word.

The Tangut script was created under Western Xia in the eleventh century, in a region with Chinese and Khitan writing traditions. It served government records and Buddhist translations. An official document from 1072 is its earliest transmitted example; a 1502 inscription shows use after the state fell.

Why does 𘦲 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.
