What 𗪮 means
𗪮 is a Tangut character glossed “new.” Scholars transcribe its reconstructed reading as me, roughly “meh.”
The Tangut script was created around 1036 for the Tangut language under the Western Xia state. It was used for government records, legal and literary texts, and Buddhist works. Its shapes can resemble Chinese characters, but Tangut is a distinct script for a different language.
How long was Tangut writing used?
It continued for centuries after Western Xia fell. The last known Tangut inscription dates to 1502.
What should I do if someone sends 𗪮?
Read it as a Tangut-script reference until you have context. Its gloss alone cannot tell you whether the sender means “new” or has another purpose, so ask before reading it as a modern-language message.
The outline can vary between fonts while the character stays the same. If 𗪮 appears as an empty box, the selected font may lack Tangut coverage.
Historical and specialist; opaque without Tangut context.
The gloss “new” is not enough to make it a self-explanatory chat message.

Questions people ask
2Is 𗪮 an emoji?
No. It is a Tangut text character. If it appears alone in chat, read it as a reference to the script until the sender provides more context.
Why does 𗪮 show as a box?
The selected font may not include Tangut characters. A box is a missing-glyph display, not a different character.
