Tangut character for falling

In Tangut, 𘏫 is a verb meaning “fall,” “descend,” or “send”; context distinguishes the sense. The Xixia (Western Xia) court promulgated Tangut writing in 1036 to record the language and mark a distinct state identity; a Buddhist relic inscription dated 1038 survives. The script’s character structures follow Chinese models but represent another language. Tangut texts continued after Western Xia fell in 1227, including Buddhist works under Yuan rule.
