What 𗪳 means
Its Tangut gloss is “to teach.” The Latin-letter form we is a scholarly transcription of a reconstructed reading, not another meaning.
The Tangut script was created for Western Xia state-building around 1036. Its earliest surviving document is dated 1072. The script appears in official records, translations, and Buddhist texts, and remained in use after the Western Xia state fell.

If 𗪳 appears as a box, your font may lack Tangut glyphs; the character’s identity is unchanged.

1Why does 𗪳 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
