Vietnamese Nôm character quàng

It writes Vietnamese quàng: to sling or drape around the body.

In Vietnamese, quàng can also describe putting an arm around someone or draping clothing over the body.

Chữ Nôm grew collectively from Chinese characters and their parts to record Vietnamese. Scholars date Proto-Nôm—the script’s early stage—to the 8th–9th centuries. After independence in 939, writers adapted Chinese characters to write Vietnamese; the system matured in the 11th–14th centuries. By the 1920s, the Latin-based Quốc ngữ became the preferred script for Vietnamese literature.
