What 𗲢 means
Tangut dictionaries gloss this character as “nipple.”
The Tangut script, also called the Xixia script, was created around 1036 under the first Western Xia emperor to write Tangut and express the kingdom’s distinct identity. It remained in use into the Yuan and Ming periods and had fallen out of use by the end of the Ming.
Historical and specialist; the character’s word meaning depends on Tangut text.
Without Tangut context, don’t assume the recipient knows its body-part meaning.
