tangut ideograph-171b7

Tangut Character 171B7

440/6136

𗆷 is a Tangut character for “sycophancy”; a Chinese dictionary equivalent is 侫. The Western Xia court commissioned Tangut writing in 1036 as a marker of state identity. Its characters follow Chinese writing principles but form a distinct script; neighboring Khitan rulers had earlier commissioned scripts. Tangut texts include Buddhist works and Chinese and Tibetan translations; 12th-century manuscripts were found at Khara-Khoto in 1908–1909.

Why does 𗆷 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.
