U+171DE "𗇞" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗇞
U+171DE "𗇞" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific ideograph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038-1227). This character, which would have represented a morpheme or word, is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, a collection of over 6,000 ideographs that were deciphered from historical texts and inscriptions. Its glyph depicts a complex arrangement of strokes characteristic of Tangut calligraphy, though the precise meaning of this particular ideograph may still be a subject of scholarly research, as many Tangut characters await full linguistic and semantic documentation.
