What 𡅪 means
It marks a vow or sworn promise. Chữ Nôm was a historical Vietnamese script adapted from Chinese characters to write Vietnamese.
The dictionary analyzes 𡅪 as 口願 and cites it in “thề non nguyền bể” (“swear by mountains, vow across seas”). Here nguyền is an oath; in nguyền rủa, the word can mean “curse.”
