Unicode Version 17.0

𘧻

U+189FB "𘧻" Tangut Component-508 is a graphical element from the standardized set of Tangut components, which are derived from the historical Tangut script used in the Tangut Empire of northwest China from the 11th to 16th centuries. This specific component, assigned the identifier 508 in the Unicode standard, serves as a foundational building block for constructing more complex Tangut ideographs, representing a discrete brushstroke or structural part rather than a complete character with its own meaning. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that scholars and digital typographers can accurately encode, display, and analyze the intricate calligraphic system of the Tangut language, which was rediscovered in modern times and is critical for studying the history and culture of that extinct civilization.
