What ꑍ means
It means “two” or counts days.
In Liangshan Yi, ꑍ means “two” or counts days; context decides. ꀃꑍ means today.
Is ꑍ a Chinese character? No; it is a Yi syllable, in writing distinct from Han characters. Traditional Yi writing (Cuan or Wei) varied by region. One tradition credits Aki with devising the script during the Tang dynasty (618–907); its oldest surviving example is a bronze-bell inscription from 1485. Bimo (Yi religious specialists) passed down religious, medical, magical, and genealogical texts. The Liangshan standard was developed in 1974 and officially introduced in 1980; it covers that dialect alone.

Questions people ask
1Why does ꑍ show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the Yi Syllables block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
