What 𗾧 means

“Surname” is the character’s gloss, not the full name’s meaning.

The full name 𗼎𗾧 refers to the Tangut people, not to an individual’s modern Chinese family name.

The Tangut script was created for the Western Xia state in 1036 to express its identity and translate texts. Buddhist printing in Tangut continued after the state fell in 1227.

Historical and scholarly; used in Tangut texts, not everyday modern Chinese.
