tangut ideograph-17a3e

Tangut character 17A3E

𗨾 is a Tangut character, but no reliable gloss for its meaning is established as of 2026; its Unicode label is an identifier, not a translation. Created in 1036 under Western Xia rule for state-building and probably to translate a collection of Buddhist scriptures, the Tangut script was used in Buddhist, official, and translated secular texts through 1502. Chinese and Khitan state scripts influenced it, but neither makes Tangut readable.

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.
