U+17F6D "饤江" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

饤江

U+17F6D "饤江" Tangut Ideograph-# is a part of the Tangut script block, which encodes the historical writing system of the Tangut Empire (11th–13th centuries) that existed in what is now northwestern China. This specific ideograph, whose exact meaning and pronunciation are often only partially known or reconstructed by scholars, belongs to a large set of over 6,000 known Tangut characters that were deciphered primarily through the discovery of bilingual texts like the Tangut-Chinese "Pearl in the Palm" glossary. Since the Tangut script is logographic and independent of the Chinese writing system, each character like 饤江 represents a specific morpheme or word, and their digital inclusion in Unicode allows for the preservation, research, and digital display of this extinct language in modern computing environments.
