Unicode Version 17.0

ð—¾–

U+17F96 "ð—¾–" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to document the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in northwestern China. This specific ideograph represents a morpheme within the Tangut script's large inventory of over 6,000 logographic characters, which were derived from Chinese calligraphy but feature distinct and more complex stroke patterns. Typically numbered by its position in the renowned dictionary "Homonyms" or the "Sea of Characters," this particular character's exact semantic meaning may refer to a concept, object, or action specific to Tangut culture, though its precise definition requires lookup in specialized academic resources. The inclusion of U+17F96 in Unicode since version 9.0 in 2016 allows for the digital preservation and study of this historically significant script.
