Text symbol

What 𣊿 means

It writes chiều, meaning “afternoon” or “early evening.”

Chữ Nôm is Vietnam’s historical system for writing Vietnamese with Chinese characters and forms built from their parts.

Why did Chữ Nôm develop?

To record Vietnamese words with Chinese-based characters.

After Vietnam regained independence in 939, writers gradually adapted Chinese characters and their parts to record Vietnamese. Early written evidence includes personal and place names on Lý-dynasty epitaphs (1010–1225); Chữ Nôm later carried Vietnamese literature.

Since the 20th century, Vietnamese has generally been written in Quốc Ngữ, the Latin-based alphabet; 𣊿 belongs to the historical Chữ Nôm tradition.

Why does 𣊿 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
