What 𗰌 means
𗰌 is a written sign in the Tangut script. The label “Tangut Ideograph-17C0C” identifies the glyph, not its Tangut reading or English meaning. In a message, treat it as text rather than a conventional reaction; the surrounding passage helps identify the word it represents.
How do I type the Tangut character 𗰌?
Use a Tangut-specific input method. Ordinary Mandarin pinyin does not provide a shortcut for a Tangut character. Tangut input methods can use stroke codes based on a character’s strokes or written parts, or phonetic codes based on reconstructed Tangut readings.
A missing Tangut font can hide the glyph
Without a Tangut-capable font, a browser or app may show a box or fallback glyph instead.
A browser web font can fix that page, while a separate app may still need an installed Tangut font. The box changes what you see, not the character’s identity.
Use it as historical Tangut writing; in an ordinary message, do not assume it signals a reaction.
A box may hide that the sender sent a Tangut character.

1Why does 𗰌 show as a square?
A font fallback appears when the browser or app lacks a Tangut-capable font. A web font can fix that browser page, but a separate app may still need an installed Tangut font.
