U+18225 "𘈥" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, a historical writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This particular ideograph is part of the extensive Tangut block in Unicode, which encodes over 6,000 characters reconstructed from the 17th century discovery of the Tangut script.
