Unicode Version 17.0
饤本
U+17C7E "饤本" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a historical writing system used from the 11th to 16th centuries for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty. This character, assigned to Plane 1 of the Unicode Standard as part of the Tangut Ideographs block, represents a single morpheme or word from the vast vocabulary of over 6,000 recorded Tangut characters, which were logographic in nature. Its precise meaning and pronunciation have been partially reconstructed through scholarly analysis of Tangut dictionaries and translations, though many such characters remain uncommonly known outside of specialist linguistic and historical contexts.
