tangut ideograph-17e4c

Tangut character for new

3661/6136

𗹌 is glossed “new” in Tangut. The Western Xia court commissioned a script for the Tangut language in 1036, with Buddhist translation and state identity among its aims. Tangut writing also carried secular works. A secular manuscript from Khara-Khoto probably dates to the 12th or early 13th century.

What 𗹌 means

No. Tangut is a separate script for the Tangut language.

Some Tangut character forms and ways of building characters were inspired by Chinese writing, but the Tangut script did not descend from Chinese. The neighboring Khitan people had created two scripts before 1036, one largely based on Chinese; the Tangut court followed that regional example.

Why does 𗹌 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.
