Text symbol

What 𫗏 means

Here it means “dishes.”

A Ming-era Chinese reference book quotes the verse as “尔酒既清,尔𫗏既馨” (“Your wine is clear; your dishes are fragrant”). The Book of Odes is an early Chinese poetry collection; other editions print 肴 or 殽.

Unicode maps it to Vietnam's 2007 Hán-Nôm repertoire, a catalogue for older Vietnamese writing using Chinese characters and locally created forms. The “dishes” meaning comes from the Chinese poem.
