tangut ideograph-17659

Tangut character 17659

1626/6136

𗙙 is a Tangut character, not a Chinese one; Tangut script writes the Tangut language. Its Unicode number is a computer label, not a word translation. The Tangut-led Western Xia state (Xixia) commissioned Tangut writing in 1036; the script drew on Chinese forms and marked a distinct identity. Later texts included Buddhist works and Chinese translations; Tangut writing survived the state's fall in 1227, with a Buddhist inscription from 1502.

Why does 𗙙 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
