U+18255 "𘉕" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+18255 "𘉕" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an extinct logographic writing system used to record the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a distinct morpheme or word, though its exact meaning is known only through scholarly reconstruction from historical dictionaries and texts, as the script fell out of use after the dynasty's collapse. Its inclusion in Unicode as part of the Tangut block ensures digital preservation and enables modern research and computational analysis of this complex and once obscure writing system, which features over 6,000 known characters.
