U+17F77 "𗽷" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a single syllable or morpheme and is part of the Tangut ideograph block in Unicode, which was encoded to support the study and digital preservation of historical texts. As with many Tangut characters, its precise meaning and pronunciation are subjects of ongoing philological research, often derived from surviving bilingual dictionaries and manuscripts, making it a valuable artifact for understanding the language and culture of the Western Xia empire.
