What 𗥌 means
It is a Tangut writing character; context gives it a word-level meaning.
Scholars reconstruct its Tangut reading as njij¹, written in scholarly Latin-letter transcription. The pair 𗥌𘝞 is glossed “letter”; in a passage about Su Wu, a historical figure, it is translated as “writing on silk.”
The Tangut script was created in 1036 for Western Xia’s official and cultural work, including recording events and translating Chinese classics. Later, it was used for Buddhist and literary manuscripts.
If 𗥌 appears as a box, the font may lack Tangut coverage.
The “letter” gloss belongs to 𗥌𘝞 as a pair, not to 𗥌 alone.

1Why does 𗥌 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.
