U+17CA1 "𗲡" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗲡
U+17CA1 "𗲡" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, which was used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in northwestern China. This character, assigned to the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, represents one of approximately 6,000 known Tangut characters, each with a unique radical and phonetic component. Its precise meaning and pronunciation are not fully certain, as the Tangut script is largely deciphered through comparative studies of bilingual texts and dictionaries, but it would have been used for a single syllable or morpheme in a language unrelated to Chinese.
