Unicode Version 17.0

𗼜

U+17F1C "𗼜" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded symbol from the Tangut script, an extinct writing system used during the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries) to record the Tangut language. This ideograph is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, which was added in 2016 with version 9.0 to preserve and digitally represent this historical script. The character itself denotes a particular morpheme or word within the Tangut language, though its exact meaning often requires specialized paleographic study due to the language's limited modern understanding. As one of over 6,000 known Tangut characters, U+17F1C contributes to the broader effort of digitizing ancient texts and facilitating research into the culture, history, and linguistics of the Western Xia civilization.
