Unicode Version 17.0
𘢽
U+188BD "𘢽" Tangut Component-190 is one of the radical-like building blocks used in the construction of Tangut script characters, which were employed to write the now extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This particular component, cataloged in the Unicode Tangut Components block, serves as a standardized graphic element for the scholarly encoding and analysis of the over six thousand known Tangut logographs. Its inclusion in Unicode supports digital preservation and research into the Tangut script, which has been a focus of philological study to decipher historical texts and understand the culture of the Tangut people.
