Unicode Version 17.0

𘖭

U+185AD "𘖭" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This specific ideograph represents a distinct morpheme or concept within that lexicon, encoded as part of the Unicode Tangut block which preserves thousands of such characters for historical and linguistic study. The " # " in its official name serves as a placeholder for the character's unique reading or meaning, which scholars identify through analysis of Tangut texts and dictionaries. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital representation and research into a script that was deciphered only partially, with this character contributing to ongoing efforts to understand the full linguistic system of the Tangut civilization.
