tangut ideograph-178cd

Tangut character

2254/6136

𗣍 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label does not give its meaning or pronunciation. Created around 1036 for the Western Xia state, the Tangut (Xixia) script drew on Chinese writing but remained distinct. It was used in government, private writing, and Buddhist texts, survived Western Xia's fall, and became obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty. A box means the font lacks Tangut support.

Why does 𗣍 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.
