U+18723 "𘜣" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘜣

U+18723 "𘜣" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single character representing a logograph from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This specific ideograph is one of thousands of characters in the Tangut script, known for its complex and highly stylized strokes that often visually resemble Chinese characters but are structurally distinct and far more numerous. In the Unicode standard, it is encoded in Plane 1's Tangut block, which was introduced to support digital preservation and study of the language, though the exact meaning of this particular ideograph remains a subject of linguistic research due to the limited surviving texts and the ongoing efforts to decipher the Tangut lexicon.
