Chữ Nôm adapted Chinese forms for Vietnamese
Chữ Nôm adapted Chinese character forms to write Vietnamese words. Educated Vietnamese also used Classical Chinese, the formal written language of government and scholarship. During the early Nguyễn dynasty, Vietnam’s last royal house, palace memorials—formal reports to the ruler—used Nôm as often as Classical Chinese up to 1815.
By the 1920s, Quốc ngữ, Vietnamese written with Latin letters, had spread through publishing as Nôm writing receded from everyday use. This glyph’s Vietnamese source is the Hán Nôm Coded Character Repertoire (Hà Nội, 2007).
