𘐨
U+18428 "𘐨" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character represents a unique, non-repeating ideograph within the Tangut Consortium’s standardized repertoire, which was added to Unicode in 2016 as part of the Tangut block. Its precise meaning or phonetic value remains under scholarly investigation due to the limited corpus of deciphered texts, but it contributes to the ongoing effort to digitally preserve and analyze the complex Tangut script, which comprises over 6,000 known characters.
