What 𘫕 means

It is a structural part of a Tangut character. Components help describe larger characters and organize them in dictionaries.

The Tangut Homonyms component list includes 𘫕 and helped readers identify characters while reading Buddhist sutras. The book was printed no earlier than 1188, and a copy surfaced at a Beijing auction in 2014. Tangut writing served official, private, and religious uses under the Western Xia, Yuan, and Ming dynasties. Modern analyses may divide characters differently; one component can have different meanings or sound roles in different characters.

Seen by itself, it points to analysis of Tangut character structure rather than ordinary prose.

Do not read it as a standalone Tangut word.

Why does 𘫕 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.
