Text symbol

What 𘆖 means

It is glossed as “rank.”

A 2015 analysis of a Tangut vocabulary book gives this English gloss. Tangut was a historical language; its script served state records, schools, and Buddhist texts. Use is documented from 1036–1502, with later Buddhist inscriptions after the Western Xia state fell.

Is 𘆖 Chinese?

No; it belongs to Tangut, not Chinese writing.

Tangut is a separate historical script, though its square forms resemble Chinese writing. Historical Tangut font projects preserve variant outlines of 𘆖; without Tangut font coverage, an app may show a box.

Why does 𘆖 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.
