What 𗝉 means
It names a kind of bamboo in Tangut.
Tangut script drew design cues from Chinese writing and Khitan, a separate historical script; 𗝉 is a Tangut word.
The Western Xia empire developed Tangut writing around 1037 for state and cultural work. Buddhist translations, legal texts, and manuscripts from the mid-11th to early 13th centuries preserve it. After the Mongol conquest, everyday use faded; later bilingual glossaries enabled study. The latest known inscription dates to 1502.

1Why does 𗝉 show as a box?
A box usually means the app or device lacks a font containing Tangut characters. A Tangut-capable font may fix it if the app can use installed fonts. As of 2026, some mobile apps may still fail to render Tangut text.
