Unicode Version 17.0
𘥖
U+18956 "𘥖" Tangut Component-343 is a graphic element from the Tangut script, a historical writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character is specifically classified as a component, meaning it is a recurring structural part used to build more complex Tangut logographs, rather than being a complete, standalone character itself. Its inclusion in Unicode supports the digital preservation and scholarly study of the Tangut script, aiding linguists and historians in analyzing the script's composition and the language's unique phonetics and morphology.
