U+17D44 "𗵄" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, a complex writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This ideograph has been assigned to the Tangut block of the Unicode Standard, part of the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, and it represents a unique semantic and phonetic value that scholars have reconstructed through comparative analysis of Tangut texts, often corresponding to a particular character in the Chinese-based Tangut dictionary or manuscript.
