What does 𗩅 mean?
A Tangut–Chinese dictionary glosses 𗩅 as “surname.”
Here “surname” means a family name; the character names that category, not an individual.
The historical Western Xia state commissioned Tangut writing in 1036 for the Tangut language and state culture. The script later carried official records, Buddhist translations, and classics.
Why does 𗩅 look different in another font?
Different Tangut fonts can give the same character different shapes.
Catalogues record alternate forms of 𗩅 and analyze it as one radical and three nested components. A radical is a recurring part of a character; these pieces describe how 𗩅 is built, not what it means. A box or blank glyph means the font lacks Tangut coverage.
Historical and specialist: this is a Tangut-language character.
If 𗩅 appears as a box, the font lacks Tangut coverage.
