U+1850C "𘔌" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1850C "𘔌" 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 Empire (1038–1227). This character is part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, which includes thousands of complex characters that were deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscriptions. The precise meaning of this ideograph, like many Tangut characters, is derived from scholarly analysis of Buddhist texts, legal documents, and bilingual Chinese-Tangut dictionaries, though its specific semantic value often requires expert philological interpretation. As part of the broader effort to digitally preserve the Tangut script, U+1850C enables researchers and linguists to represent and study this ancient writing system in modern computing environments.
