Text symbol

What 𘊶 means

It means your father's sister: your paternal aunt.

This is a specific kinship term, not a word for every aunt. Tangut is the language written in the Tangut script.

The Tangut script was introduced around 1036 for the Tangut-led Western Xia kingdom. The earliest surviving Tangut-script document is dated 1072. The script served official and religious writing, including Buddhist works, and continued into Yuan- and Ming-era use after the kingdom fell.

Why does 𘊶 show as a box?

A font without Tangut coverage cannot draw it.

A missing Tangut font may show this character as a box or replacement mark. Its appearance changes; its identity does not.

Why does 𘊶 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.
