What 𘊬 means
Its meaning is “to smooth.” The Tangut reading is conventionally reconstructed as *sa₁; the asterisk marks a scholarly reconstruction.
Western Xia ruler Li Yuanhao commissioned Tangut writing in 1036 for state-building and Buddhist scripture. Chinese and Khitan writing influenced it, but Tangut was not derived from Chinese. Texts in Tangut continued after Western Xia fell in 1227.
Historical and scholarly, rather than conversational.
