Nôm character for ních

𡀡 is a Chữ Nôm spelling for Vietnamese ních, a word for cramming something full or eating a lot. It belongs to Vietnam’s historical character-based writing system, not to emoji or reaction shorthand.

Text symbol

What 𡀡 means

It writes the Vietnamese word ních: “pack tightly” or “eat a lot.”

Chữ Nôm is a historical Vietnamese script that adapted Chinese characters and their parts to write Vietnamese words. Dictionaries connect 𡀡 to ních (“pack tightly; eat a lot”) and phrases such as chặt ních (“packed tight”) and núc ních (“stuffed full”).

The script grew from recording Vietnamese names and words into a medium for literature and some official records. This character belongs to that tradition.

Questions people ask

Why does 𡀡 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B 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.
