Text symbol

What 𫂚 means

Read it as Vietnamese mai. Chữ Nôm is an older Vietnamese writing system. In contemporary Vietnamese, thảo mai describes sweetness that feels insincere; 𫂚 supplies the phrase’s mai syllable.

When did Chữ Nôm enter the written record?

Early records include a stele dated 1173. Chữ Nôm adapted Chinese characters and their components to write Vietnamese words; that stele uses it in personal and place names. The script later carried Vietnamese literature, before Latin-letter Quốc Ngữ became the main written form during the twentieth century.
