Unicode Version 17.0
𘟡
U+187E1 "𘟡" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logographic symbol from the Tangut script, a complex writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This character, part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, represents a single morpheme or word in Tangut, though its precise meaning and phonetic value are subjects of ongoing philological research due to the limited number of surviving texts. As a digital encoding, it preserves invaluable historical and linguistic data, enabling scholars to study, transcribe, and digitally archive Tangut manuscripts, which are crucial for understanding the culture and governance of the Western Xia empire.
