Unicode Version 17.0
U+17E88 "𗺈" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries). This character belongs to the Tangut block of Unicode, which encodes thousands of ideographs deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscriptions. While the exact meaning and phonetic value of this particular ideograph are known to specialists through linguistic reconstruction, the number sign in its name indicates a unique identifier within the Tangut repertoire, corresponding to a specific entry in the standard Chinese and Tangut dictionaries. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and study of this complex and largely undeciphered script, facilitating research into the history and culture of the Tangut civilization.
