Unicode Version 17.0

ð—†…

U+17185 "ð—†…" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a historical logographic writing system used between the 11th and 16th centuries for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty. This ideograph represents one of approximately 6,000 distinct characters in the Tangut repertoire, which were encoded in the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane within the Tangut block (U+17000 to U+187F7). The character is identified by a unique index number in scholarly dictionaries, with "-#" indicating its provisional or reference name until a definitive phonetic or semantic value can be assigned. As part of the Tangut Ideographs range, U+17185 helps preserve access to ancient texts including Buddhist scriptures and legal documents, though its exact meaning and pronunciation remain subjects of ongoing philological research.
