What 𗽚 means
A Tangut dictionary glosses it as “excrement.”
“Feces” is the basic gloss, but it does not settle whether the Tangut word was vulgar or insulting in a sentence.
Don’t equate the English gloss with a Tangut swear word.

Questions people ask
2Is 𗽚 a Chinese character?
No. 𗽚 belongs to the Tangut script. Tangut drew on Chinese visual conventions, but it is a separate writing system, not a Chinese character or Han-character variant.
Why does 𗽚 show as a box?
Your current font may not include Tangut. Switch to one with Tangut coverage; Tangut fonts can also draw glyph forms differently without changing the encoded character.
