What 𗲁 means
It names an action; the sentence tells you what collapses.
Li Fanwen’s dictionary glosses it as “to collapse”; nearby words give the exact use.
The Western Xia court put Tangut writing into official use in 1036 to record its language and mark state identity. Buddhist texts continued after its fall in 1227; a Buddhist pillar dated 1502 shows later religious use.
Is 𗲁 Chinese or Tangut?
Tangut: Chinese writing influenced the script, not the language.
The script borrows Chinese square forms and strokes, but this glyph is read in Tangut, not Mandarin.
