Text symbol

What 𗡳 means

In the Tangut lexicon, 𗡳 is glossed as “beautiful.”

The Tangut script was created around 1036 under Western Xia’s first emperor for state administration, translated classics, and Buddhist scripture.

After Western Xia fell in 1227, Tangut writing continued in print under the Yuan dynasty, a later ruling house in China, before the script became obsolete.

Historical and specialist; treat it as a Tangut word, not a modern emblem.

The gloss “beautiful” does not make it a general beauty symbol.

Why does 𗡳 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.
