It means pants or trousers.
Tangut is the writing system used to write the Tangut language; this character represents one of its words.
Why did Western Xia create Tangut writing?
Western Xia created the script to write Tangut and mark the state as distinct.
It appeared around 1036 under Western Xia's first emperor and served government administration and Buddhist texts.
Chinese and earlier Khitan writing systems influenced its design, but Tangut was a separate script for the Tangut language. It continued after Western Xia fell and became obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty.
