Unicode Version 17.0

𘞊

U+1878A "𘞊" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries). This character is part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, which includes thousands of characters that were decoded from the Tangut script dictionary and manuscripts. As an ideograph, it represents a word or morpheme rather than a sound, and its exact meaning is typically identified by its index number in the standard Tangut character repertoire, though its literal significance may vary depending on the original text. The inclusion of such characters in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent ancient historical documents and linguistic scholarship.
