For occasional entry, use a character map or picker that supports Tangut. As of 2026, Tangut IME Online offers character lookup, handwriting recognition, and code-based entry through radical, four-corner, Xuanpin, and Cangjie schemes; a mobile app without Tangut font coverage may still show an empty box after successful entry. A Tangut-capable font or viewer can confirm the character.

It is a Tangut verb glossed “to obstruct.”
A Tangut–Chinese dictionary gives this word that meaning. The surrounding phrase or sentence shows how the verb fits in context.
Why does Tangut writing look Chinese?
It uses Chinese-influenced conventions to write Tangut.
The Tangut script was devised for the Western Xia state in 1036. Its square, component-built characters follow conventions associated with Chinese writing, but they record the Tangut language.
Tangut writing served official documents and schools, carried Buddhist translations, and appeared in printed books. Western Xia fell in 1227, but Tangut writing continued for centuries; its last known dated example was erected in 1502.
