U+18DAF "𘶯" Tangut Component-816 Unicode Character

U+18DAF "𘶯" Tangut Component-816 is a glyph representing one of the standardized graphic building blocks used to compose the complex logographic script of the extinct Tangut language, which was spoken during the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This particular component is part of a larger set of radicals and subcomponents encoded in the Unicode Standard's Tangut Components block, which aids in the systematic digital representation, analysis, and teaching of Tangut script without representing a full character or word by itself. Its inclusion allows scholars and linguists to break down and reconstruct the intricate brushstroke patterns that characterize the more than six thousand known Tangut characters.
