U+18D8D "" Tangut Component-782 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18D8D "" Tangut Component-782 is a graphic element from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (11th–14th centuries). This component is part of a set of over 6,000 known Tangut characters, many of which were reassembled from smaller radicals after the script’s decipherment in the 20th century. Specifically, Component-782 serves as a building block for constructing more complex Tangut characters, and its inclusion in Unicode helps scholars digitally encode, study, and preserve these historical symbols that otherwise exist only in manuscripts and inscriptions.
