Unicode Version 17.0

𗵆

U+17D46 "𗵆" Tangut Ideograph-# is a logographic symbol from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This specific character belongs to the Tangut Ideographs block (U+17000 to U+187FF) and is identified by its unique hexadecimal reference, though its precise meaning or phonetic value in Tangut is not widely defined in standard English Unicode reference notes. The Tangut script, representing a complex writing system of over 6,000 known characters, was deciphered in part through archaeological finds like the Tangut text of the Lotus Sutra, and characters like U+17D46 contribute to the ongoing scholarly effort to understand this historical language and its literature.
