tangut ideograph-17a76

Tangut character

𗩶 is a Tangut character, not a Chinese character or emoji. The script was created around 1036 to write Tangut for the official and cultural life of Western Xia (Xixia). It stayed in use after the Mongol conquest and became obsolete by the end of the Ming period.

Text symbol

What 𗩶 means

Its Unicode name identifies the glyph; it does not translate it. That name is an identifier, not a Tangut word or pronunciation.

Tangut was the language of Western Xia, also called Xixia. Its script took Chinese writing as a model but used distinct forms; this glyph's shape alone does not give it a Chinese reading. Surviving texts include official and private documents, inscriptions, manuscripts and Buddhist books.

Historical-script text, not a chat reaction.

Its Chinese-inspired form does not make 𗩶 a Chinese character.
