What 𠶍 means
It belongs to a Vietnamese Nôm spelling for “chúm chím.”
The two-character form 𠶍呫 describes lips or a smile that are not fully open.
Chữ Nôm adapted Chinese characters to write Vietnamese; this is a Vietnamese reading, not a Chinese definition.
Béhaine’s dictionary manuscript is dated 1772; Taberd’s Vietnamese dictionary appeared in 1838 and drew on that earlier work.

1Why does 𠶍 show as a box?
It sits beyond Unicode’s first 65,536 positions. A font without this supplementary CJK glyph cannot draw it, so the app may show a missing-character box.
