Text symbol

What 𘒹 means

It means “chest” or “breast” in Tangut.

A Tangut dictionary records these meanings for the character. Tangut was the language of the Western Xia state, and its script was used for official writing and Buddhist translations.

The script’s beginnings are conventionally dated to 1036–37. It continued in use after Western Xia fell; the latest known Tangut inscription is dated 1502. Tangut writing drew on Chinese and Khitan models but remained a separate script.

𘒹 is a Tangut text character, not an emoji; it carries a word meaning rather than an emoji-style reaction.

Questions people ask

Why does 𘒹 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
