U+188AD "𘢭" Tangut Component-174 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘢭

U+188AD "𘢭" Tangut Component-174 is a graphic element used in the composition of Tangut logographs, part of the Tangut script block designed for encoding the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty. This component does not function as an independent word but serves as a structural part, or radical, within more complex Tangut characters. Its inclusion in Unicode facilitates the digital representation and study of the Tangut script, aiding scholars in philology and historical linguistics by providing precise identifiers for the script's constituent parts. The character is classified as a component rather than a complete ideograph, reflecting the systematic decomposition of Tangut characters into smaller, recurring graphic units.
