Unicode Version 17.0
𘐰
U+18430 "𘐰" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in northwestern China. This character represents a single syllable or morpheme, as all Tangut ideographs do, and its precise meaning is typically determined through scholarly analysis of historical texts. The Tangut script features over 6,000 known characters, making it one of the most complex logographic systems, and U+18430 is part of the modern Unicode standard's effort to preserve and digitally encode these rare historical glyphs for linguistic and historical research.
