Tangut character 𗽉

3914/6136

A Tangut lookup or input tool is the practical way to enter 𗽉, a Tangut character. Its exact gloss must be established from a Tangut dictionary or sentence; the character's components do not translate it on their own. As of 2026, digital encounters with Tangut writing are mainly scholarly, typographic, or archival. If 𗽉 appears as a box, the font likely lacks Tangut coverage.

What 𗽉 means

Use a Tangut lookup or input tool.

Tangut input tools can search by catalogue number, components, a hand-drawn form, or the glyph itself.

What does 𗽉 mean in Tangut?

Its exact gloss depends on Tangut dictionary or sentence context.

Tangut is the language this script was built to write; 𗽉 is one of its characters. A dictionary entry or the sentence containing it is needed to establish its exact gloss. The shape and component parts do not translate it by themselves.

Western Xia developed Tangut writing for the Tangut language, and the script's official state rollout is dated to 1036. Schools taught it; officials used it for records; diplomatic exchanges could be bilingual; and Buddhist works translated from Chinese and Tibetan were printed in Tangut.

After Western Xia fell, Tangut remained in religious writing. As of 2026, the last known examples are two dharani pillars—stone monuments bearing Buddhist sacred formulas—dated to 1502.
