Meanings and usage

noun: sleeve
袂

3 candidate readings from Wiktionary — genuine Chaozhou colloquial form not yet confirmed by a speaker. All three are attested for the "sleeve" sense (muê6/mi6 directly, plus as an alternative form of 䘼 which also attests ng2); a separate, unrelated block (alt. of the Hokkien negator 𣍐/𫧃, no gloss given) sharing only the muê6/mi6 readings was not used.
