What 𘪕 means
Not by itself: it is a component, not a whole character.
Tangut components help scholars describe and analyse complete characters; 𘪕 belongs to that scholarly toolkit, not everyday vocabulary.
Emperor Li Yuanhao ordered the script for state-building, with Buddhist translation a major purpose. Its forms drew on Chinese writing without deriving from it. A manuscript fragment from the ruined city of Khara-Khoto probably dates to the 12th or early 13th century.

1Why does 𘪕 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
