What 𗵆 means
It means “to accomplish.” Its reconstructed reading is śeṃ¹; the superscript 1 marks the tone.
In Pearl in the Palm, a Chinese–Tangut word list, 𗵆 serves as a sound gloss—a character that hints at pronunciation.
Tangut writing emerged around 1036 for state-building in the Western Xia kingdom and Buddhist texts. Manuscripts include 12th or early 13th century material.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𗵆 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.

𗵆\17D46Why is 𗵆 a box on my screen?
fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
