What 𫑺 means
It supplies sưa, the phrase’s final syllable.
Chữ Nôm is a historical Vietnamese script used to write Vietnamese words. In the written pair 醝𫑺, this glyph supplies sưa, the final syllable of “say sưa.”
The poem Sơ kính tân trang, completed in 1804 and copied in 1883, uses “say sưa” for absorption in đạo, meaning religious teaching or practice. A woodblock edition of the song collection Ca trù, printed in 1900, uses the phrase for literal drunkenness. The surrounding verse tells you which sense fits.
It belongs to historical Vietnamese Nôm writing; cited poems use it in both drinking lines and devotional phrasing.
“Say sưa” can mean drunk or deeply absorbed; use the surrounding verse to tell which.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𫑺 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.
