What 𗨜 means
Li Fanwen’s dictionary glosses the word as “son and daughter.” The entry appears as LFW 2099 and points to entry 0276. Western Xia created the Tangut script around 1036 for state-building and Buddhist texts, while expressing an identity distinct from Song China. It remained in use through the Yuan and Ming dynasties before becoming obsolete.
A historical Tangut word, suited to scholarly or archival contexts.
A box usually means your font lacks Tangut coverage; the character itself is unchanged.
