Text symbol

What 𗭒 means

It means “foot” or “leg” in Tangut.

The Tangut script was created around 1036 as the state script of Western Xia, a state ruled by Tangut people, for records and translations. Its earliest transmitted document dates to 1072. After 1227, when Western Xia fell, Tangut writing continued in religious texts during the Yuan and Ming dynasties before falling out of use. A direct link to the Khitan script, another regional writing system, remains debated.
