U+185D4 "𘗔" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘗔
U+185D4 "𘗔" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logographic glyph from the Tangut script, an extinct writing system used to record the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This specific ideograph has no standard English meaning or modern equivalent, as the Tangut script was only deciphered in the 20th century through historical manuscripts, and each character represents a unique syllable or concept from the Tangut lexicon. Its inclusion in Unicode supports digital preservation of this ancient script, though its precise pronunciation and semantic value are known only to specialists studying rare Tangut texts.
