What 𘤓 means
It is a catalog component, not a complete character. Tangut components can index dictionaries or offer clues to meaning or sound; their roles vary, so the whole character supplies the reading.
The Tangut script developed under Western Xia in the 11th century for the Tangut language, distinct from Chinese and Khitan. Its forms drew on Chinese writing and that of the neighboring Khitan people. It served Buddhist, legal, administrative and dictionary texts; written evidence reaches 1502. The modern catalog combines components from multiple Tangut dictionaries.
A technical catalog mark; its role depends on the larger character.
