What 𗻉 means

It is glossed as “grass.” Li Fanwen lists it as L2008-3604; Clauson lists entry 2831.

Tangut writing began in 1036 under Li Yuanhao, ruler of Western Xia (Xixia), as the state established its administration and distinct cultural identity. It carried official texts, Buddhist translations, and Chinese literature. The script drew on Chinese and neighboring Khitan writing while remaining distinct.
