𗨸 [¹ghy₂] 'close, near' is constructed from the left side of 𗦍 [ne₄] 'close, near' and the right side of 𗶚 [¹ne₄] 'relatives, kin' {𗦍𘊱𗶚𗡼} babelstone.co.uk/Tangut/WenhaiL…

𗨸 also joins up with 𗦍 to form a word 𗦍𗨸 'close, near' (listed in Homophones and Synonyms), although neither this word nor 𗨸 by itself seem to occur in literary text. On the other hand, 𗦍 does occur quite often in different texts.

The reading of the character 𗦍 'close' was until recently unknown, but Homonyms puts it in the 𘟙 ne₄ homophone group, immediately after 𗶚 'relatives' ... which is rather interesting.
