U+188BC "𘢼" Tangut Component-189 is a graphical element used in the digital representation of the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty. As a component character, it does not stand alone as a complete word but serves as a structural part, or radical, within larger Tangut characters, helping to encode the complex glyphs of this script in modern digital formats. This component, like others in the Tangut block of Unicode, was added to support scholarly research, linguistic analysis, and the digital preservation of historical texts from the Tangut civilization.
