What 𘋽 means
The dictionary gloss is “dog.”
Li Fanwen’s Tangut dictionary indexes it under “dog” as entry 5507.
In 1036, the Western Xia state commissioned Tangut writing for state-building and a Buddhist canon, a collection of Buddhist texts. Later manuscripts associated with Khara-Khoto, a Tangut-era city, include Buddhist and secular translations.
Historical and specialist; it suits writing about Tangut texts.
