What 𗬓 means

𗬓 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label gives no reading. The Tangut script was modeled on Chinese writing but is a distinct system. A 12th-century Tangut dictionary, the Sea of Characters, lists 𗬓 at entry 9.273; its surrounding entry or a sentence supplies reading context.

The Tangut script was formally introduced in 1036 to write the language of the Western Xia state. It served official records and Buddhist translations. Writing continued after Western Xia fell in 1227; the last known example of the script is dated 1502.

Why does 𗬓 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.
