U+18145 "𘅅" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18145 "𘅅" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded character representing a single word or morpheme from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia Empire (1038-1227) in what is now northwestern China. This character is part of a much larger block of Tangut ideographs, which were systematically encoded in the Unicode Standard to preserve and enable digital representation of this historically significant writing system. The precise meaning of this particular ideograph is not widely known outside specialized scholarly contexts, as the Tangut script was deciphered only partially over the past century, often requiring comparison with Chinese translations and Buddhist texts. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that researchers, linguists, and digital archivists can correctly store, transmit, and display this rare character across modern computing platforms.
