Tangut Ideograph 170EA

235/6136

𗃪 is a Tangut character; its English meaning remains unsettled as of 2026. Tangut (Xixia) is a distinct script for the Tangut language, modeled on Chinese and the neighboring Khitan script. Scholars have reconstructed several possible pronunciations. A 12th-century Tangut dictionary grouped by sound records it. After Western Xia fell, the script remained in use under Yuan and Ming rule and became obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty.

Why does 𗃪 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut 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.
