U+189E7 "𘧧" Tangut Component-488 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𘧧

U+189E7 "𘧧" Tangut Component-488 is a graphical element from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This specific component, one of hundreds cataloged in the Unicode Standard, represents a structural part used to build full Tangut characters, much like a radical in Chinese writing. It was encoded in Unicode version 9.0 in 2016 as part of the Tangut Components block, which aids scholars in digitally preserving and analyzing the intricate composition of Tangut text. The component itself typically carries no independent phonetic or semantic value, serving instead as a building block for the thousands of logograms that recorded the empire's Buddhist, legal, and historical documents.
