Tangut character for time

It means “time” in Tangut. Unicode’s Tangut source data links 𗾺 to entry 3690 in Li Fanwen’s Tangut–Chinese dictionary, where it is glossed “time.” In a historical sentence, surrounding words determine its precise grammatical sense; the code-point label itself is not the translation.

Tangut script was created in the eleventh century in the Western Xia state to write the Tangut language. An official document dated 1072 is cited as the earliest transmitted example; a stele from 1094 is another early witness. Surviving sources from the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries include Buddhist manuscripts and printed works. Tangut writing continued after the state fell in 1227.

Why does 𗾺 look complicated?

It is a three-part written character, not a picture. An Ideographic Description Sequence (IDS) is a notation that describes a character’s visible structure. The IDS for 𗾺 records left, middle, and right components; it maps the written construction, not a word-by-word translation.

Should I send 𗾺 without a gloss?

Only with a gloss or source. The glyph gives a Tangut word, not the reason it was chosen or the passage it comes from. A short gloss or quotation makes the reference legible.
