What 𗣪 means
It means “urine.”
Tangut is a separate writing system for the Tangut language. Its dense style reflects Chinese influence, but 𗣪 is not Chinese. The script was created for Western Xia, a medieval state ruled by Tangut people.
The glyph appears in Wénhǎi (“Sea of Writing”), a historical Tangut dictionary. Its reconstructed reading is written bjị in scholarly transcription. Unicode 16.0 notes Tangut fonts can vary in glyph design; without Tangut font support, it may be blank.
Historical and scholarly in tone; its literal meaning makes it a blunt choice in casual conversation.

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.
