U+187A5 "𘞥" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘞥
U+187A5 "𘞥" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227), and is located in the Tangut Ideographs block of the Unicode Standard. This character represents a single Tangut logogram, whose precise meaning and phonetic value are documented in traditional Tangut dictionaries and scholarly reconstructions, though its exact semantic interpretation is often studied within the context of the script's complex and largely syllabic structure. Its inclusion in Unicode facilitates digital preservation, research, and cross-platform representation of this historically significant but now extinct language.
