Unicode Version 17.0
𘔞
U+1851E "𘔞" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a historical writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This ideograph represents a logographic character, each of which encodes a unique syllable or morpheme within the Tangut lexicon, though its precise semantic meaning or phonetic value is not widely known outside specialized scholarly circles. Its inclusion in Unicode, as part of the Tangut block released in Unicode 9.0 in 2016, enables digital preservation and study of this complex script, which comprises thousands of characters and was primarily deciphered through the analysis of bilingual texts.
