U+17E36 "𗸶" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗸶
U+17E36 "𗸶" Tangut Ideograph-# is a logogram from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. Like all Tangut characters, it is composed of complex, highly structured strokes that resemble Chinese characters but are derived from a unique, independent writing system. This specific ideograph remains largely unreadable to modern scholars without specialized dictionaries, as the Tangut script was deciphered only in part during the 20th century through comparative analysis of multilingual inscriptions and texts.
