U+18802 "𘠂" Tangut Component-003 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘠂
U+18802 "𘠂" Tangut Component-003 is a foundational graphical element used within the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system employed for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This component appears as the third among the recognized radical-like pieces that combine to form the larger, often intricate Tangut characters, each of which had a specific phonetic value or meaning. Its inclusion in Unicode, particularly in the Tangut Components block, allows for the structured representation of the script's internal composition, aiding scholars in the analysis of character decomposition and in the digital preservation of texts from that historical period.
