What 𲆻 means
It is a Chữ Nôm spelling of Vietnamese mặn, usually “salty.”
Chữ Nôm is a historical Vietnamese writing system built from Chinese characters and locally created forms to record Vietnamese speech. A Hán-Nôm lexical database lists 𲆻 among the spellings of mặn.
Chữ Nôm appears in Vietnamese stone inscriptions from the 11th century and later in literature and court records; royal records from the Gia Long reign (1802–1819) also used it. Those dates trace the script and its uses, not necessarily this exact spelling.
A specialist Chữ Nôm spelling, not the everyday Latin-script form mặn.
As of 2026, most Vietnamese speakers cannot read Chữ Nôm; 𲆻 alone may not get your meaning across.

1Why does 𲆻 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.
