What 𗑭 means
Its dictionary gloss is loss, shortfall, or deficiency.
Li Fanwen’s index pairs it with Chinese 虧 as a translation, not another form of 𗑭.
Created around 1036 for Western Xia, Tangut followed an earlier model: the Khitan script of another regional state. It served government and Buddhist translation and printing for its own language, and remained in use through the Yuan and Ming periods.
Historical and scholarly; opaque without Tangut or dictionary context.
Chinese 虧 is a translation gloss, not a second form.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𗑭 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.
