Tangut Character for Rake

𗞶 means “rake” in the Tangut language, a garden tool for gathering leaves; its font-drawn shape is text, not emoji. The Tangut (Xixia) script was created in 1036 as Western Xia’s official writing, borrowing Chinese character structure to write the Tangut language and spreading widely. Western Xia fell in 1227; a 1502 stone monument preserves Tangut writing, which scholars decoded in the early 20th century using bilingual texts.
