tangut ideograph-1744b

Tangut character 𗑋

1100/6136

𗑋 is a character in the medieval Tangut kingdom’s writing system. A Tangut dictionary by Li Fanwen records entry 2172 and a scholarly sound transcription, “tʃhju”; that is a pronunciation record, not an English translation. Tangut writing was established in 1036 for administration and Buddhist texts, drawing on Chinese writing principles and writing systems used by the Khitan, a historical people. A Tangut-capable font is needed to display it.

Why does 𗑋 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.
