U+17211 "𗈑" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) in present-day northwestern China. This ideograph, part of the Tangut block in the Unicode Standard, represents a single morpheme or word in the Tangut lexicon, though its precise meaning requires specialist decipherment from historical texts.
