Text symbol

What 𘖯 means

It refers to a kind of container used for cooking.

Around 1036–1037, Western Xia created the Tangut script for writing the Tangut language. It became the kingdom’s official writing system and appeared in records; the earliest surviving document is dated 1072. An inscription from 1502 shows the script still in use centuries later. Chinese writing influenced its design, and Khitan influence is possible. The scripts are distinct, so knowing Chinese alone does not let you read Tangut. 𗗘, glossed “sweet,” is listed as a parent form in the analysis of 𘖯. That is a character-history link, not a shared meaning.
