U+17F5B "ð—½›" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð—½›
U+17F5B "ð—½›" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE). This particular character, identified by its unique hexadecimal code point in the Tangut block of the Unicode standard, represents a distinct word or morpheme that has been cataloged as part of the ongoing effort to digitally preserve and study the script. Like all Tangut ideographs, it features complex, blocklike strokes that often puzzle contemporary scholars, and its exact meaning is typically determined through comparative analysis of historical manuscripts, such as the Pearl in the Palm or the Tangut translation of Buddhist texts.
