Text symbol

What 𩇢 means

In a Nôm text, read 𩇢 as xanh. Context supplies the shade: leaves point to green, while sky or sea can point to blue.

This Vietnamese character belongs to chữ Nôm, which adapted Chinese characters and their parts to record spoken Vietnamese. Scholars trace Proto-Nôm, its earliest stage, to the 8th–9th centuries; the script developed through later periods.

Why does 𩇢 show as a box?

A font without this rare glyph may display an empty box.

As of 2026, Taiwan’s CNS11643 page lists it in the MingLiU and DFKai-SB fonts for Windows 10 and later.

Why does 𩇢 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.
