tangut ideograph-17d78

Tangut character 17D78

3449/6136

𗵸 is a character in Tangut writing, not an emoji; Tangut was spoken in northwestern China. The script's square style resembles Chinese characters, but it remains a separate writing system, so this is not a Chinese character. Unicode calls it Tangut Ideograph-17D78, a numbered label rather than a translation of the character. Created around 1036 for Western Xia, Tangut later carried Buddhist books and other records after the state fell.

Questions people ask

Why does 𗵸 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.
