What 𘇼 means
Its dictionary sense is “willing” or “consent.”
Li Fanwen’s Tangut dictionary pairs 𘇼 with the Chinese character 肯, meaning “willing.” That is a translation gloss; 𘇼 itself is Tangut, not Chinese.
In 1036, Western Xia ruler Li Yuanhao ordered the creation of the Tangut (Xixia) script for government, state identity and translation of the Buddhist canon, a collection of scriptures. The project followed neighboring Khitan people’s example of creating scripts of their own. Later texts covered Confucian teachings, military matters and literature.

1Why does 𘇼 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.
