Unicode Version 17.0
𗲈
U+17C88 "𗲈" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This character belongs to the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, an area dedicated to preserving the complex, multi-stroke symbols that were deciphered from ancient manuscripts and stone inscriptions. As with many Tangut characters, U+17C88 represents a single morpheme or word in the Tangut language, contributing to the ongoing scholarly effort to understand the phonetic and semantic values of this largely unreadable script through comparative analysis of surviving texts.
