What 𗏑 means
It means “weak, feeble” in Tangut.
Western Xia's Tangut script began around 1036–1037, serving state records and literature and marking Tangut identity; its earliest surviving document dates to 1072.
It continued under Yuan and Ming rule, then became obsolete by the end of the Ming. Its square forms resemble Chinese writing, but Tangut is a separate script. A 2019 study considered a possible Khitan connection.
Use it in Tangut-language, historical, or linguistic material; context helps readers recognize its gloss.
