Unicode Version 17.0

𗂉

U+17089 "𗂉" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) in present-day northwestern China. This character belongs to the Tangut block of Unicode, which was added to the standard in 2016 to support the study and digital preservation of this ancient script. As a Tangut ideograph, it represents a single morpheme or word with its own distinct meaning and pronunciation, though the exact semantic value of this particular glyph is typically identified by its index number in scholarly references rather than a common translation. The inclusion of such characters in Unicode enables researchers, linguists, and enthusiasts to accurately encode, store, and exchange texts in the Tangut script, facilitating ongoing efforts to decipher and understand the historical records of the Tangut civilization.
