𩐅 soih4

There is an interesting Teochew word soih4 and in LLL and ZXS dictionaries they use this character 𩐅

Mogher uses 

You will notice that Mogher's character has this hui1  character and the one in the dictionaries has an extra stroke under the hui1 character.  

gab4bo5 is a toad and Mogher uses the wrong bo5 character. 

gab4bo5 soih4 ceng5 ka1 —— gê2 ngên6  𩐅牀骹——假硬

A toad at the bottom of a table – pretending to be strong.

比喻充好漢  Mandarin translation: to act in place of a strong person.

Do you use the word soih4?
