Tangut Necklace Character

3236/6136

𗲣 is a Tangut word whose dictionary gloss is “a jewelled necklace.” Tangut was the language of the Western Xia state, which developed this script to write it. If someone sends the character alone, its historical meaning names the object but not the sender’s reason.

Text symbol

What 𗲣 means

It means a necklace decorated with jewels. The dictionary’s English gloss is “a necklace made by jewellery”; in plain English, it names a jewelled ornament.

The Tangut script was developed around 1036–37 under Western Xia authority to write the Tangut language. Its square design follows Chinese-style writing; possible Khitan influence is less certain. The earliest surviving Tangut document dates to 1072. Tangut writing continued in Yuan- and Ming-period texts after Western Xia fell.

Can 𗲣 look different in different fonts?

Yes. Tangut fonts can draw the same character differently, so a change in outline alone does not make it a different character.
