What 𘎜 means
Its Tangut dictionary gloss is “to throw.”
Tangut writing was created in 1036 to support a Buddhist canon and the Western Xia state's distinct identity. It followed the precedent of the Khitan script, another regional writing system, and used Chinese-style character construction without simply deriving from Chinese.
Historical and specialized in tone.
