Unicode Version 17.0

𘆹

U+181B9 "𘆹" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logogram from the historical Tangut script, an extinct writing system used by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwest China. This specific character, part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, represents a word or concept in the Tangut language, which has been deciphered in part through analysis of bilingual Chinese-Tangut texts and the multilingual stele at Wuwei. The character is composed of complex strokes characteristic of the Tangut script, which features over 6,000 distinct glyphs and was primarily used for administrative, religious, and literary purposes before the fall of the Western Xia empire. Due to the ongoing scholarly reconstruction of the Tangut lexicon, the exact semantic meaning of this ideograph may not be fully known or may be identified only by a placeholder number in academic databases.
