The kanji 幾 generally conveys the meaning of "how many," "how much," or "several." It often implies an indefinite quantity or a small but unspecified number. It can also suggest "some" or "a few."

⚫︎幾つありますか？ Translation: How many are there? ⚫︎幾らかの金 Translation: Some money. ⚫︎幾度か Translation: Several times; a few times.

I am unable to find any reliable source of information about the correspondence between the kanji 幾 and Vietnamese. Therefore, I will omit this section.

The kanji 幾 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字). The left side, 幺 (yāo), is the semantic component, which is related to the meaning of "small" or "fine." The right side, 戈 (gē), is the phonetic component, indicating the sound (though the sound has shifted slightly over time). The original meaning was likely related to "slight" or "small," which evolved into the more general meaning of "how many" or "several."
