What 𗴭 means
In Tangut, it means “same.”
A 2024 study reconstructs the reading as swu² and translates the Tangut Buddhist sequence 𘙰𗴭 as “same.”
Why was Tangut writing created?
It was created for Western Xia.
It drew on Chinese and Khitan scripts and served Buddhist translations, legal records, law codes, and other works.
As of 2026, the latest known inscription is dated 1502.

1Why does 𗴭 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
