tangut ideograph-179f3

Tangut character 179F3

2548/6136

𗧳 is a historical Tangut character; its reconstructed reading khja̱² is roughly a k released with a puff of air, then a y-like glide into the vowel in “father”; superscript ² marks its reconstructed tone. That sound is not an English translation; the Tangut word and sentence supply the meaning.

Text symbol

What 𗧳 means

Its meaning comes from the Tangut word and sentence around it.

A 2008 Tangut–Chinese dictionary indexes it as L2008-2182, a catalog reference.

The Tangut script was developed for the Tangut language under the Western Xia state, a medieval East Asian state. It drew on Chinese and Khitan writing, but recorded a different language. The earliest surviving texts date from the mid-11th century and include Buddhist, legal, and other works.
