U+1804E "𘁎" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘁎

U+1804E "𘁎" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded glyph representing one of the thousands of logograms used in the Tangut script, which was employed to write the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, a collection of over 6,000 ideographs that were deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscriptions. Like all Tangut characters, it consists of a complex arrangement of strokes that convey both a phonetic and semantic component, though the exact meaning of this particular ideograph is not commonly known outside of specialist philological research. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that scholars can digitally preserve, transmit, and study this unique writing system, which is critical for understanding the history and culture of the Western Xia civilization.
