Tangut Component-108

No. It is a structural part, not a standalone Tangut word.

A Tangut component helps describe the internal structure of a larger character. The number 108 is its catalog label, not a word reading or meaning.

Tangut writing was made for the Tangut language and used in the Western Xia state. The tradition lasted from about the 11th century through the 16th century, including Buddhist texts, legal writing, and official records.

How does 𘡫 appear inside Tangut characters?

It is one piece in the structure of a complete Tangut character.

It often appears on the left beside another component, or as the first part of a three-part arrangement. An ideographic description sequence (IDS) is a compact notation that shows these positions; it describes structure, not how to pronounce or translate 𘡫 alone.

Tangut writing drew partly on Chinese writing and Khitan, another script of the region, but remained distinct. A shared component-analysis method does not make 𘡫 a Chinese character.
