What 𘖁 means

𗍊 is listed as a source character.

The Wén Hǎi analyzes 𘖁 through 𗍊, which it translates as “as, like.” This connects their structure, not their meanings.

Tangut appears in official, private, and religious texts. After Western Xia fell, it remained in use under the Yuan and Ming, then became obsolete by Ming’s end. Rediscovered in the late 19th century, it was largely deciphered in the early 20th.
