Tangut character 17EED

𗻭 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label is an inventory tag, not a pronunciation or gloss. Tangut writing was created around 1036 for the Tangut language under the Western Xia dynasty and used in government, private life, and religion. It continued after the dynasty fell, then became obsolete.

Worth knowing

  • Historical Tangut writing ran top-to-bottom in columns arranged right-to-left. Modern scholarly editions present it horizontally, left-to-right; direction describes the text layout, not this character’s meaning.

Questions people ask

Why does 𗻭 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.
