What 𗯳 means
The English gloss is “luxuriant.” Unicode maps it to Li Fanwen’s entry L5657; his English index files that entry under this term.
The Tangut script was created under Western Xia’s first emperor around 1036 for state and cultural writing. It appeared in official, private, and religious texts, and use continued after the Mongol conquest. This dates the script, not this character’s first known appearance.
Its strokes can resemble Chinese writing, but Tangut is a distinct script. This is a text character, not emoji artwork.
It signals specialist interest in Tangut texts or historical-script typography.
Chinese-like strokes do not make this a Chinese character.
