U+17EC7 "𗻇" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗻇
U+17EC7 "𗻇" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, a writing system used for the extinct Tangut language that flourished in the Xixia Empire (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a single morpheme or word, but its exact phonetic value and meaning remain unknown or are still under scholarly investigation, as the script was only partially deciphered after the discovery of the Tangut–Chinese bilingual dictionary known as the "Pearl in the Palm." It is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, which was included to facilitate digital preservation and study of this historic, non-Chinese logographic script.
