tangut ideograph-178d9

Tangut character 178D9

2266/6136

𗣙 belongs to the Tangut script; its Unicode label identifies it, not its meaning. The 12th-century Sea of Writing, a Tangut dictionary arranged by sound, lists it; compound 𗀂𗣙 is glossed “honest; upright (in character).” In 1036, Li Yuanhao ordered the Tangut script created to build the state and produce a Buddhist canon; Tangut texts also translated Chinese works, and its design drew on Chinese writing without deriving from it.

Why does 𗣙 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.
