Tangut Character 𗫒

2771/6136

𗫒 is a Tangut character glossed as “a surname,” or family name. Western Xia used Tangut script, also called Xixia, to write the Tangut language. It is text, not emoji; a blank box can mean the font lacks it.

What 𗫒 means

That identifies a kind of name, not a particular family.

Western Xia (Xixia) made Tangut its official script in 1036 for public and cultural writing. Its style drew on Chinese regular script, but Tangut is a separate script, not Chinese characters.

Tangut writing continued under Yuan and Ming rule, then became obsolete by the Ming dynasty's end. Many surviving Yuan-period texts are Buddhist.
