U+17C4E "𗱎" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗱎
U+17C4E "𗱎" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logogram from the ancient Tangut script, which was used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries). Assigned to the Tangut block of Unicode, this particular ideograph represents a specific word or morpheme, though its precise meaning is often unconfirmed or listed as a placeholder due to the incomplete decipherment of the script. It is displayed as a complex character formed of dense strokes, typical of Tangut writing, and its inclusion in Unicode aids scholars in digital documentation and comparative study of historical East Asian scripts.
