Unicode Version 17.0

饤交

U+17F7B "饤交" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph within the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Xixia Empire (1038-1227). This particular character, identified by its unique hexadecimal code point, represents a single ideograph from the vast Tangut lexicon, which was deciphered primarily through bilingual texts like the Tangut-Chinese glossary "Pearl in the Palm." The "-#" in its name indicates that its specific phonetic or semantic reading has not been fully identified or standardized, as many Tangut characters remain only partially understood by modern scholars. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures that this historical character can be digitally preserved, displayed, and studied across modern computing systems, contributing to the ongoing research into Tangut philology and the cultural heritage of the Xixia dynasty.
