The Cantonese word "dou6" is usually written as the character "度" or "喥". The Cantonese word is used as pronoun for "place". Example, "邊度" (Where?), "呢度" (This place / Here), "嗰度" (That place / There). Noted you may use "喥" in these example.
The character "喥" is only used as the representation we're discussing here. Some would consider this the "correct" representation. Since it is mostly used in spoken Cantonese and not formal writings, there is a mouth "口" on the side of the character.
The character "度" can have other meaning like the temperature unit "degree". it means "way" in ancient Chinese text. And also some other different meaning in word compounds.
