What 𗶚 means
Use a Tangut-aware input method such as Xunpin.
Xunpin, used with the Rime input-method framework, accepts scholarly Latin spellings, strokes, and four-corner codes based on shape. Input and display are separate: your app also needs a Tangut font.
What does 𗶚 mean?
It means “near” or “close” in Tangut.
A Buddhist translation uses 𗦍𗶚 in a phrase about approaching or being close.
The Tangut script was formalized for use by the Western Xia state in 1036 to write Tangut. Schools taught it, officials used it, and Buddhist scriptures were translated and printed in it. A stone pillar bearing a Buddhist dharani, a sacred text, is dated 1502.
