U+17D5F "𗵟" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗵟
U+17D5F "𗵟" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific entry within the Unicode Standard's Tangut block, representing one of the thousands of logographic characters used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty. This particular ideograph, known only by its glyph and a provisional index number, has not been definitively assigned a meaning or phonetic value in modern scholarship, as the Tangut script was only partially deciphered from the few surviving manuscripts and stone inscriptions. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that it can be digitally represented and preserved for linguistic and historical research, even though its exact role in the ancient Tangut writing system remains unknown.
