What 娬 means
娬 is a variant of 嫵, meaning charming or graceful. The early character dictionary Shuowen Jiezi (compiled around 100 CE) glosses 嫵 as 媚也 (“charming”). The court poem Shanglin fu uses 嫵媚纖弱 (“charming and delicate”).
Chinese uses 妩 in simplified text and 嫵 in traditional text; 娬 is a variant of 嫵. Japanese references also give it a sense of ingratiating or flattering.
