What 𗇭 means
It can mean “to spread, extend, or stretch,” or “a small cup.”
Tangut writing was created around 1036 for the Western Xia state and its language. It served official, private, and religious texts, including Tangut translations of Buddhist and Chinese works. Its forms resemble Chinese characters, but it is a separate script.
Homophones, a Tangut sound dictionary from the 12th century, records 𗇭.
