U+18690 "𘚐" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘚐

U+18690 "𘚐" Tangut Ideograph-# is a component of the Tangut script, an obsolete logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty from the 11th to the 16th centuries. This specific ideograph, identified by its provisional name "Tangut Ideograph-#" due to a lack of a fully standardized semantic label, represents a single morpheme from the vast Tangut lexicon, which comprises over 6,000 known characters. Its inclusion in Unicode supports digital preservation and scholarly study of Tangut texts, allowing researchers to encode, search, and analyze historical manuscripts without relying on makeshift substitutions, thereby contributing to the ongoing effort to decipher the language and understand the culture of the Tangut people.
