U+17D91 "𗶑" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17D91 "𗶑" Tangut Ideograph-# is a logographic glyph from the Tangut script, a complex writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty (1038-1227 CE) in what is now northwestern China. This specific ideograph is part of a vast corpus of Tangut characters, which number over 6,000 known glyphs, and its exact meaning remains partially obscure to modern scholars, though it typically represents a semantic concept or phonetic element within the Tangut lexicon. Decoding such characters relies heavily on comparative analysis with Chinese translations found in bilingual texts, yet many ideographs, including this one, still lack a definitive modern interpretation due to the script's complexity and the language's isolation from surviving linguistic families.
