Tangut Ideograph 17CE2

In Tangut, 𗳢 expresses agreement. It belongs to historical texts from Western Xia and to scholarship that reads them. Its Chinese-like outline comes from a separate script, and some fonts cannot display it.

Text symbol

What 𗳢 means

A Tangut dictionary glosses it as “to agree.” That is a word about agreeing, not a universal one-word “yes.”

Tangut was the language and script of the kingdom of Western Xia. About 1036, Western Xia developed the script for government, private writing, and religious works; its distinct design also marked political and cultural distance from Song China. After Western Xia fell, the script continued in Yuan and Ming records before becoming obsolete. Scholars still study Tangut texts.

Historical and scholarly; it fits discussion of Tangut words, texts, or the script.

𗳢 may look like a Chinese character, but it belongs to the separate Tangut script.

Why does 𗳢 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
