U+18A8D "𘪍" Tangut Component-654 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘪍
U+18A8D "𘪍" Tangut Component-654 is one of 752 Tangut radical components that form the building blocks of the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) in what is now northwestern China. This specific component likely represents a phonetic or semantic element drawn from a repertoire of over 6,000 known Tangut characters, many of which were first recorded in the 12th century Tangut dictionary, the "Pearl in the Palm." As part of the Tangut Components block (U+18A80 to U+18AFF) encoded in Unicode 13.0 in 2020, it aids scholars and digital archivists in analyzing the script's complex structure, which often combines two components to form a character.
