U+18A78 "𘩸" Tangut Component-633 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘩸
U+18A78 "𘩸" Tangut Component-633 is a glyph representing one of the structural pieces used to build the complex logographs of the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Xi Xia dynasty. This component, designated with the number 633 in the official Unicode Tangut Components block, serves as a graphical building block rather than a standalone character, and it appears as a sinuous, vertical stroke with a hooked top and a slight curve to the right. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard is essential for scholars and software to correctly encode, display, and analyze the thousands of compound Tangut characters that were historically carved on manuscripts and steles.
