Text symbol

What 𪦓 means

It writes mìn in mẹ mìn. Chữ Nôm is a character-based Vietnamese writing system.

The 2015 Kangxi-Plus Unicode Han Dictionary records it. The 女 (“woman”) component hints at meaning.

Does mẹ mìn always mean a woman?

No; its use has widened beyond the older stereotype.

A 2019 Vietnamese report contrasts the old image of a strange woman abducting children with traffickers of any gender, including relatives, partners, and friends.

In Vietnamese, mẹ mìn is a serious accusation.

Don't use it casually; it accuses someone of abduction or trafficking.

Why does 𪦓 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.
