U+18679 "𘙹" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘙹

U+18679 "𘙹" Tangut Ideograph-# is a logogram from the extinct Tangut script, used to write the Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people during the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This specific character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a distinct word or morpheme and was created as part of the massive character set codified in the "Tibetan-style" script devised by Yeli Renrong in the 11th century. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and study of a complex writing system that features tens of thousands of intricately structured characters, many of which still have uncertain meanings or pronunciations.
