Tangut Component 490

490/768

𘧩 is a Tangut component: a written piece used to describe or index Tangut characters, not a word with a fixed translation on its own. It belongs to the Xixia script for the Tangut language; a font without Tangut support may not display its glyph.

Text symbol

What 𘧩 means

By itself, 𘧩 has no fixed word meaning.

A Tangut component is a piece used to describe a character's structure or help find it in a dictionary. 𘧩 is one such piece, not a complete Tangut character standing for a word.

The Xixia script was created for the Tangut language under Western Xia's first emperor in the 11th century. It was used for state writing and translations of Buddhist and Chinese works into Tangut; Chinese characters influenced its design. Manuscript discoveries in the early 20th century revived scholarly study.

Specialist and archival; useful in Tangut dictionaries, script description, and Unicode work.

Why does 𘧩 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
