𗼋 [¹dzwyq₄] 'to respect, to pay one's respects to' is constructed from the left side of 𗼠 [¹khwy₄] 'merit' and the left side of 𗰺 [¹dzwyq₄] 'fast, quick' (phonetic) {𗼠𘊱𗰺𘊱} babelstone.co.uk/Tangut/WenhaiL…

𗼋 [¹dzwyq₄] is commonly used to translate Chinese 敬 jìng 'repect', as in these example from the 《𗋚𗦎𗵽𘆡𗑱𗡞𗢳𗦻𗖰𗚩》 = 《過去莊嚴劫千佛名經》 "Thousand Names of the Buddhas of the Past":
𗢰𘓩𗼋𗤶𘟀𗢳 = 南無見敬懷佛
𗢰𘓩𗼋𗭼𗿷𗢳 = 南無敬懷明佛
𗢰𘓩𗼋𗹪𘎪𗢳 = 南無説敬壞佛
