U+181A9 "𘆩" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘆩
U+181A9 "𘆩" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, which was officially encoded in version 9.0 of the standard in 2016, allowing for the digital representation of historical texts. Like all Tangut ideographs, it represents a single morpheme or word, often with a complex internal structure, and its precise meaning is determined by context within the limited surviving manuscripts. The inclusion of such characters in Unicode aids researchers in preserving and analyzing this unique, nearly indecipherable script.
