Text symbol

What 𗌂 means

Use Unicode input for U17302.

If your input method supports hexadecimal Unicode entry, enter U17302. The code point sits beyond the range covered by most ordinary keyboard layouts, so exact keystrokes depend on your system.

What does 𗌂 mean in Tangut writing?

It is a Tangut transliteration character.

In Li Fanwen's Tangut–Chinese dictionary, a reference work matching Tangut characters with Chinese glosses, entry 6024 is labeled “a transliteration”—a written form that records sounds across languages. 𗌂 can therefore represent a borrowed name or sound in Tangut writing; it does not translate to one fixed English word.

The Tangut script was created in 1036 under Western Xia rule for state writing, including a Buddhist canon, and helped express a political identity distinct from Song China. The oldest Tangut document known through later copies dates to 1072; surviving texts include Buddhist works, Chinese translations, legal material, and literature. Tangut writing drew on Chinese ways of making characters but remained a separate script for the Tangut language; Khitan was another script in the region.

Questions people ask

Is 𗌂 an emoji?

No. Unicode 9.0 encodes 𗌂 as a Tangut text character, not as an emoji.

Why does 𗌂 show as a box?

The active font lacks Tangut coverage. A box is a font fallback; the text still contains 𗌂. Tangut-capable fonts may draw the same character with slightly different shapes.
