tangut ideograph-1759c

Tangut Character 1759C

1437/6136

𗖜 is a character in the Tangut script, which wrote the Tangut language, and a Tangut–Chinese dictionary links it to 御. That Chinese gloss spans royal, governing, and carriage-driving senses, so the sentence around 𗖜 decides the translation. Alone, it is a lookup clue, not a complete translation.

Text symbol

What 𗖜 means

It points to royal, governing, or carriage-driving senses.

A Tangut–Chinese dictionary indexes this glyph with 御, a Chinese character whose senses include imperial or royal associations, governing, and driving a carriage. That entry narrows the field; the surrounding Tangut word and sentence determine the translation.

A structural description shows 𘡒 on the left and 𘧭 on the right. These are written components that explain how the character is built, not its full translation.

Why was Tangut written?

Tangut writing served a state and a wide book culture.

Tangut is the language this script records. The Western Xia court ordered a Tangut writing system in 1036. It helped distinguish the state from Song China, and one major aim was to compile a Tangut Buddhist canon, a collection of Buddhist scriptures. Tangut books also carried Chinese translations, Tibetan materials, Confucian classics, military works, encyclopedias, and literature.

After Western Xia fell in 1227, Tangut texts continued in manuscripts and print. A manuscript from Khara-khoto probably dates to the 12th or early 13th century; surviving Tangut material also comes from beyond the dynasty.

What does 𗖜 mean when someone sends it?

Alone, it does not settle which sense is intended.

If someone sends 𗖜 by itself, treat it as a reference to this Tangut character. The glyph does not tell you which dictionary sense or source they intend; ask what text or entry they have in mind.

Specialist historical-script territory; its dictionary range needs the surrounding Tangut text.

Don’t translate it as “emperor” without the surrounding sentence.

Questions people ask

2

Why does 𗖜 show as a box?

A font without Tangut coverage cannot draw the glyph, so an app may show a missing-glyph box. Switch to a font that includes Tangut support.

Does 𗖜 mean “emperor”?

Not by itself. The Chinese gloss 御 includes royal or imperial associations as well as governing and driving a carriage, so “emperor” is too narrow without the Tangut sentence.
