U+18AE8 "𘫨" Tangut Component-745 is a graphic element from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty. This specific component, cataloged under the Tangut Components block, serves as a structural building block for more complex Tangut logograms, similar to a radical in Chinese characters.
