tangut ideograph-18493

Tangut character 18493

5268/6136

𘒓 is a Tangut character whose Latin spelling is pa, meaning “to congeal” or “to scar.” Tangut was the language of medieval Western Xia (Xixia); its ruler ordered the script in 1036 for Buddhist translations and state identity. It drew on Chinese writing and earlier Khitan scripts, and Tangut Buddhist texts survive after Western Xia fell in 1227. It is a written word, not an emoji reaction.

Why does 𘒓 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.
