What 𘈡 means
It means “body” or “physical form” in Tangut. Scholars reconstruct its reading as ¹khon₂; this notation represents a proposed pronunciation, not a typing code.
Tangut script was created in 1036–1037 as the Western Xia state’s writing system for records and official orders. Its earliest surviving dated example is an official document from Guazhou in 1072. Later Buddhist inscriptions at Juyongguan and Dunhuang date to 1345 and 1348.

1Why does 𘈡 look different in fonts?
It can. Some Tangut-capable fonts follow different historical source forms, so the same encoded character can be drawn with different components.
