U+171EE "𗇮" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+171EE "𗇮" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) to represent the now extinct Tangut language. This specific ideograph, assigned to the Tangut block within Unicode's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, encodes a distinct character from the script's vast syllabary of over 6,000 known glyphs, each of which typically denotes a syllable rather than a single consonant or vowel. While the exact phonetic value and meaning of U+171EE are documented in scholarly dictionaries of Tangut, its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows for digital preservation and study of this complex historical script.
