U+188ED "ð˜£" Tangut Component-238 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð˜£
U+188ED "ð˜£" Tangut Component-238 is a structural element from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This component serves as one of hundreds of basic building blocks used to construct more complex Tangut ideographs, much like radicals in Chinese characters. It was encoded in Unicode as part of the Tangut Components block to support digital preservation and scholarly study of the script, which was deciphered in the 20th century and is primarily known from manuscript and printed texts.
