I am programmed to be multilingual, but I do not have access to real-time information to accurately determine the correspondence of kanji with specific languages such as Vietnamese. Therefore, I am unable to provide information for that section.

Origin and Formation

The kanji is a 形声文字 (keisei moji), a phono-semantic compound character. It is made up of two components: ⚫︎ The phonetic component (jaku/waka), which provides the sound element and hints at the meaning. ⚫︎ The semantic component (gen/koto), which means "speech" or "words." The combination suggests the act of speaking or responding with agreement, hence "assent" or "consent." The "言" component indicates that agreement is expressed through words.
