Unicode Version 17.0

𗻦

U+17EE6 "𗻦" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the ancient Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character belongs to the Tangut Ideographs block of Unicode, which was added to support digital encoding of the over 6,000 known Tangut characters, many of which were deciphered from texts discovered in the early 20th century. While the exact phonetic value and meaning of 𗻦 may not be widely documented in English sources, it represents a component of the complex, Chinese-influenced writing system that features highly intricate strokes and is structurally distinct from Chinese characters. The inclusion of this ideograph in Unicode facilitates scholarly research, digital preservation, and the study of this extinct but historically significant language.
