What 𗞸 means

It is glossed as “a kind of tree.” The English index to Li Fanwen’s Tangut dictionary gives the gloss without naming one species.

Tangut writing resembles Chinese writing but is a distinct script. Its texts include government records, private writing, Buddhist books, inscriptions, and manuscripts. Writing continued under the Yuan and Ming dynasties before the script fell out of use.

Historical and specialist in tone.
