Unicode Version 17.0

𗇟

U+171DF "𗇟" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty between the 11th and 16th centuries. This ideograph represents a unique logographic character from a corpus of over 6,000 known Tangut signs, each of which combines semantic and phonetic elements to denote syllables or words. The character is encoded in the Unicode Tangut block, which was introduced in version 9.0 of the Unicode Standard to preserve and digitally represent this historical script for modern scholars and typographers. Its inclusion helps facilitate research into Tangut philology, enabling accurate digital rendering and study of texts that document the culture, law, and Buddhist literature of the Western Xia empire.
