Is R0310 a word or a radical?
R0310 is a component, not a word or fixed-meaning radical. Tangut component 310 is used to index and describe larger Tangut characters; the number is an inventory label, not a pronunciation or translation. Its role depends on the whole character: parts may contribute sound or meaning in different ways.
Tangut writing developed in the 11th century for the Tangut language in Western Xia. It drew on Chinese and Khitan writing models but formed a distinct script, used in Buddhist translations, legal records, and other manuscripts. The mid-12th-century Sea of Characters, a Tangut dictionary, analyzes larger characters into parts that could contribute sound or meaning differently in each character. The last known Tangut inscription is dated 1502.
Technical and scholarly: 𘤵 belongs in discussions of Tangut characters and dictionaries.
Treat 310 as an inventory label, not a pronunciation or a word meaning.
