I attached a screenshot below of an LEH-2 entry. I am wondering what the little box is after the Hebrew word 'nh.

That character is a diamond, and appears correctly so if you turn off text smoothing, but it is another of those high-ascii characters that Quartz no longer supports.

The Introduction to LEH2 has this sentence:

The diamond (‡) before a Hebrew (or Aramaic) word designates it as a “root” rather than as the form in which it occurs in the text.

Apparently some of those characters got converted to the double cross symbol in the etext, but some were missed, we will try to correct that in the future.
