Tangut Character 1742E

1071/6136

𗐮 is a Tangut character; its Unicode name labels the glyph, not its word or pronunciation. In 1036, Western Xia’s ruler commissioned Tangut writing to record the kingdom’s language and express its independence. It later served government and Buddhist texts, and writing continued into China’s Ming dynasty. Tangut characters draw on Chinese models and need a Tangut-capable font to display; possible influence from nearby Khitan writing has been proposed.
