U+18877 "𘡷" Tangut Component-120 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘡷
U+18877 "𘡷" Tangut Component-120 is a graphic element derived from the Tangut script, an extinct writing system used for the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty in present day northwestern China. It represents one of the identified radicals or building blocks used to construct more complex Tangut logographs, serving as a subcomponent rather than a standalone word. This character was added to the Unicode Standard as part of the Tangut Components block (U+18800 to U+18AFF) to facilitate the encoding and digital analysis of historical Tangut texts. Its inclusion helps scholars and linguists systematically study the structural composition of Tangut characters, much like how radicals function in Chinese writing.
