U+188D6 "𘣖" Tangut Component-215 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘣖

U+188D6 "𘣖" Tangut Component-215 is a glyph used as a structural element in the composition of Tangut script characters, representing one of the fundamental building blocks identified by linguists and Unicode developers for the over six thousand known Tangut logograms. This component does not carry an independent meaning or phonetic value but serves as a standardised sub unit that combines with other components to form the complex, ideographic characters of the extinct Tangut language. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard, within the Tangut Components block, supports digital encoding and scholarly analysis by providing a systematic way to reference and reconstruct the script, which was used during the Western Xia dynasty from the 11th to 14th centuries.
