Unicode Version 17.0
𘃨
U+180E8 "𘃨" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (approximately 11th to 13th centuries). This character, like other Tangut ideographs, represents a word or morpheme with a unique meaning, though its exact English translation within the Unicode standard is often simply labeled with a placeholder number due to the ongoing scholarly work needed to fully decipher the script. It is encoded in the Tangut block of Unicode, which was introduced to allow for digital representation and study of this historically significant but complex writing system.
