tangut component-179

Tangut component 179

179/768

𘢲 is a Tangut component for cataloging full characters, not a word with a fixed translation. Created around 1036 for Western Xia, Tangut (Xixia) writing appears in official, private and Buddhist texts, including translations from Chinese and Tibetan. It outlasted the kingdom and fell out of use by the end of China's Ming dynasty; Chinese and Khitan writing influenced its design, but Tangut is a separate script for another language.

Text symbol

What 𘢲 means

No. It is an index part, not a translated word. Tangut components help scholars sort and describe full characters. Component systems differ, and the same piece can contribute meaning or sound in different characters.

Technical catalog label.

179 is an inventory number, not a reading or translation.

Questions people ask

Why does 𘢲 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut Components block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
