What 𗥒 means
The Tangut meaning of 𗥒 is “sorrowful.”
Scholars conventionally write its reconstructed reading as ngo in Latin letters.
Is 𗥒 Chinese or Tangut?
It is Tangut, not Chinese.
The Tangut script was introduced in 1036 for official and cultural work in Western Xia, a historical state. It later carried Buddhist translations and survived into the mid-Ming period. Its square design was influenced by Chinese writing, but 𗥒 has no identical Chinese counterpart.
