What 𗑩 means
It means “hope” in Tangut. A Tangut homonym reference records the scholarly reconstruction ²gi’₄; this notation represents a historical sound, not a modern spoken reading.
The Xixia script was created to write Tangut under Western Xia’s first emperor around 1036. Its forms may resemble Chinese ideographs, but the scripts are unrelated. Tangut writing outlived the kingdom’s fall and is attested as late as 1502.
Why does 𗑩 show as a box?
An app without Tangut font support may show an empty box. Tangut-capable fonts render the character, but their outlines can vary.

1Why does 𗑩 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.
