𘞾
U+187BE "𘞾" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific ideograph from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia Empire (11th–13th centuries). This character represents a single Tangut word or morpheme, and like other Tangut ideographs, it is composed of intricate strokes and radicals that encode meaning and pronunciation, though its exact semantic value is a subject of ongoing research among philologists. The "-#" suffix in its name indicates that it is one of thousands of Tangut characters encoded in the Unicode Standard, which was added to preserve this ancient script for digital representation and academic study.
