What 𗠦 means
As of 2026, its English meaning is unsettled.
Scholars write its reconstructed Tangut reading as *tjị¹. This technical notation records a pronunciation; it does not translate the character.
The Tangut script was created for the Tangut language of Western Xia, a state in northwestern China. Its square forms resemble Chinese writing, but the two scripts use different rules and cannot be read as each other. Officials used Tangut for government; schools taught it, and Buddhist texts were translated and printed in it. The script is traditionally dated to 1036; writing continued after Western Xia fell in 1227, with the last known example dated to 1502.
