U+1715D "𗅝" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗅝
U+1715D "𗅝" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken in the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries). This character belongs to the Tangut block in Unicode, which was added to version 9.0 in 2016 and encodes thousands of ideographs that were deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscriptions. Like all Tangut characters, "𗅝" represents a single syllable or morpheme, but its exact meaning remains largely unknown to modern scholars due to the limited corpus and incomplete decipherment of the script. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and facilitate digital research into the Tangut civilization and its written records.
