nushu character-1b1ab

Nüshu character for nie33

60/396

𛆫 writes the Jiangyong dialect syllable nie33 in Nüshu; it is script, not an emoji reaction. In its traditional setting, women used Nüshu for personal writing, songs and wedding gifts. Its oldest known object bearing the script is a bronze coin from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom (1851–1864).

Text symbol

What 𛆫 means

Because Nüshu usually records syllables, not whole words.

nie33 is the Jiangyong dialect syllable in Latin-letter notation; “33” marks its tone. A table matching Nüshu to Chinese writing associates 𛆫 with 内 and 嫩 as spellings for local words with that reading, not as translations.

Nüshu grew among women in Jiangyong, Hunan, as they adapted Chinese characters to write their dialect. It later became a subject of heritage study and preservation.

Why does 𛆫 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.
