U+187EF "𘟯" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘟯
U+187EF "𘟯" Tangut Ideograph-# is part of the Tangut script block, specifically an ideograph from the extinct Tangut language that was used in the 11th to 16th centuries in the Western Xia dynasty of northwestern China. This character represents a single Tangut glyph, one of thousands of logograms in this challenging script that was deciphered primarily through linguistic analysis of bilingual texts like the Tangut translation of Buddhist sutras. While its exact meaning and pronunciation may vary, the character is cataloged under a provisional numeric identifier because many Tangut ideographs have not been fully deciphered, and it is included in Unicode to support historical and digital preservation of this unique writing system.
