What 𗃛 means
It is recorded as a Tangut spelling of the Chinese surname 梁.
It is also recorded for similar-sounding Chinese forms. Scholars reconstruct more than one Tangut reading, so the surname link is a useful clue rather than a universal English gloss.
Tangut writing was developed around 1036 for the Western Xia state’s government records and correspondence. The state organized Buddhist translation into Tangut in 1038. The character appears in the Sea of Characters and Homophones, a 12th-century Tangut reference work.
