What 𗩢 means
Li Fanwen’s English index glosses 𗩢 as “to harness.” The Unicode Tangut chart as of 2026 pairs it with dictionary entry 3586. A 2010 Unicode proposal paired the code point with entry 2514 (“ashamed”); the current chart associates that entry with 𗪞.
Tangut was created under Western Xia’s first emperor around 1036 to write the Tangut language, a member of the Tibeto-Burman family (a group of related languages). Its surviving record includes official, private, and religious writing: books, Buddhist sutras (scriptures), inscriptions, and manuscripts. It continued under Yuan and Ming rule after Western Xia fell, then became obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty.
Historical and archival; the dictionary gloss identifies a Tangut word, while the character alone does not show its sentence context.
“Ashamed” is the gloss attached to 𗪞 in current indexing, not 𗩢.

Questions people ask
2Is 𗩢 Chinese?
No. It is a Tangut character from a separate script created for the Tangut language. Some Tangut glyphs resemble Chinese ideographs, but the scripts are distinct.
Why is 𗩢 showing as a box?
The app cannot find a font with Tangut coverage, so it substitutes a box or another missing-glyph mark.
