Tangut Character 𗿆

4039/6136

𗿆 is a Tangut character glossed “to clear away.” The Tangut script was created under Western Xia, a Tangut state, about 1036 to write the Tangut language; it later appeared in government, legal, and Buddhist texts. This is a historical text character, not an emoji; a box on screen usually means the font lacks Tangut support.

Text symbol

What 𗿆 means

“To clear away.”

The Tangut dictionary entry 2210 gives that gloss. The script served Western Xia government and Buddhist translation, and Tangut writing continued through the Yuan and Ming periods before falling out of use. Read 𗿆 as a historical word, not a general-purpose chat character.

Is 𗿆 Chinese or an emoji?

No. It is a Tangut text character.

Tangut was modeled on Chinese and Khitan writing, a separate historical script, but it is distinct. Its Chinese-like construction does not make 𗿆 Chinese; it remains a Tangut text character, not an emoji.

Historical and specialist; it belongs in Tangut-language material, not everyday chat.

Its Unicode label identifies the character; it does not translate it.

Why does 𗿆 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.
