What 𫅠 means
To write Vietnamese speech with Chinese-derived characters.
Chữ Nôm took shape after Vietnam regained independence from China in 939, as scholars adapted Chinese characters and parts of them to write Vietnamese. From the 10th through the 20th centuries, it carried literature and public writing in law, medicine, religion and government.
A Vietnamese Hán-Nôm dictionary maps 𫅠 to đẹp, with examples for beauty, a well-matched pair and positive qualities.
As of 2026, most Vietnamese readers cannot read Chữ Nôm.
For everyday Vietnamese, write đẹp in Quốc Ngữ; 𫅠 is its historical Chữ Nôm spelling.

1Why does 𫅠 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.
