U+17F8F "𗾏" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𗾏

U+17F8F "𗾏" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single character within the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Xixia Empire (1038–1227 C.E.). This particular character is one of thousands of Tangut ideographs encoded in the Unicode Standard, representing a specific morpheme or word from the historical language. As a Tangut ideograph, it is visually dense and structurally distinct from Chinese characters, with the "-#" suffix in its name indicating that its exact semantic or phonetic reading has not yet been definitively identified or assigned a meaningful label by scholars. The character is part of the broader effort to digitally preserve and study the Tangut script, which was deciphered in the 20th century from manuscripts and inscriptions.
