𗮁
U+17B81 "𗮁" Tangut Ideograph-# is a logographic symbol representing a single word or concept in the extinct Tangut language, which was spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This character is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, a collection of over 6,000 ideographs that were decoded from the complex Tangut script, invented in 1036 under Emperor Li Yuanhao. The specific meaning of U+17B81 is not commonly documented outside specialized linguistic databases, as many Tangut characters remain partially understood, but it contributes to the scholarly effort to reconstruct the vocabulary and grammar of this unique, now dead language.
