U+188E0 "𘣠" Tangut Component-225 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘣠

U+188E0 "𘣠" Tangut Component-225 is a graphical element derived from the historical Tangut script, an extinct writing system used by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty, and it serves as one of the building blocks for composing more complex Tangut logographs. Rather than representing a standalone word or sound, this component contributes a specific, often stroke based visual pattern that, when combined with other components, forms the distinctive square shaped characters of the Tangut script. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard under the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, in the Tangut Components block, supports the digital preservation and scholarly study of this unique and once lost writing system.
