tangut ideograph-173d9

Tangut character 173D9

986/6136

𗏙 is a Tangut character in the writing system for the Tangut language used in Western Xia; 173D9 is an identifier, not a translation. The script entered official use around 1036 for state-building, took design cues from Chinese characters, and followed the example of neighboring Khitan states. It carried Buddhist and secular translations, laws, and inscriptions. Without a Tangut-capable font, it may appear as a box.

Why does 𗏙 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.
