Tangut Ordinal Suffix

2155/6136

𗡪 is the Tangut suffix transcribed tsew: it turns a number into an order word such as “third” or “twentieth.” Buddhist texts and manuscripts preserve this use; a box on screen means the font lacks its glyph.

Text symbol

What 𗡪 means

It marks a number's place in an order: first, third, twentieth.

The suffix is transcribed tsew and follows a number: 𘕕𗡪 means “third,” 𗍫𗰗𗡪 “twentieth,” and 𘈩𗡪 “first.”

Tangut writing began under the Western Xia state around 1036 for official and cultural use. Buddhist texts and manuscripts preserve this ordinal ending.

A historical Tangut word ending used in written text.

Its squared look does not make it Chinese: 𗡪 is Tangut writing.

Why does 𗡪 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.
