tangut ideograph-17e9e

Tangut Character U+17E9E

3743/6136

𗺞 is a Tangut character, but its Unicode name is only an inventory label; to learn which word it writes, check a Tangut dictionary or the passage around it. The Tangut script was created around 1036 for the Tangut language under Western Xia, remained in use under Yuan and Ming rule, and had become obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty.

What 𗺞 means

𗺞 is the tangut ideograph-17e9e. Unicode classifies it as a letter and files it in the Tangut block; this site shelves it under Chinese, Japanese & Korean.

Its appearance depends on the font and text styling.

How it is encoded

𗺞 is a single code point, U17E9E. In HTML that is 𗺞, and in CSS \17E9E.

Historical and specialist; use it for Tangut writing, research, or a script sample.

Do not treat its code-point label as a translation.

Worth knowing

Why does 𗺞 show as a box on some devices?

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.
