U+18355 "𘍕" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+18355 "𘍕" 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, like all ideographs in the Tangut block, represents a single morpheme or word, and its precise meaning is documented in the reconstructed lexicon of the Tangut language, often referencing scholarly catalogs where it is assigned an indexed identifier.
