U+17FA7 "𗾧" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17FA7 "𗾧" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logographic character from the ancient Tangut script, which was used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries) in present-day northwestern China. This specific ideograph is part of a vast corpus of over 6,000 known Tangut characters, encoded in the Unicode standard under the Tangut block to aid in digital preservation and scholarly research of the script. Its precise meaning remains uncertain among modern linguists, as the Tangut language is only partially deciphered through analysis of bilingual texts and manuscript fragments. The inclusion of this character in Unicode allows for its electronic representation in historical and linguistic studies, helping to advance the reconstruction of Tangut vocabulary and grammar.
