U+17FDC "𗿜" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𗿜

U+17FDC "𗿜" Tangut Ideograph-# is part of the Tangut script block, which encodes the historical writing system of the Tangut Empire that existed in northwestern China from the 11th to the 14th centuries. This specific character represents a particular ideograph from the extensive Tangut syllabary, which consists of over 6,000 logograms invented to transcribe the Tangut (also known as Xixia) language, a now extinct member of the Tibeto-Burman language family. As of the Unicode 9.0 standard, this character is classified within the Tangut Ideographs block and is typically used for scholarly research and digital preservation of Tangut historical texts, though its exact semantic meaning is often deduced through comparative analysis of manuscripts rather than from everyday modern usage.
