Tangut Component 732

It is a Tangut indexing component, not a word by itself.

Unicode defines Tangut components as structural elements for indexing and analyzing complete Tangut characters. Component 732 has no fixed translation on its own; it is a classification aid, not a word to read aloud.

Why was Tangut writing created?

It helped serve a new state and Tangut identity.

The script's formation is dated to 1036, when Tangut ruler Li Yuanhao ordered it as part of state-building. Buddhist translation was also a major purpose, and the script helped distinguish the Tangut state from Song China.

A Tangut manuscript leaf found at Khara-Khoto, probably from the 12th or early 13th century, preserves translated Chinese writing on statecraft and moral anecdotes. Other surviving texts cover Buddhist and Confucian learning, military matters, reference works, and literature. Tangut drew on Chinese writing principles and the earlier Khitan example, yet it was its own script.
