Unicode Version 17.0
𘘧
U+18627 "𘘧" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single character from the Tangut script, which was historically used to write the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty in northwestern China from the 11th to 13th centuries. This specific ideograph represents a distinct Tangut word or morpheme, but like many characters in this complex logographic system, its exact meaning and pronunciation are often unknown or debated by scholars due to the limited surviving texts. The character is encoded in the Tangut Supplement block of Unicode, which was added to allow digital representation and preservation of this ancient script for linguistic and historical research.
