Tangut character 17F9F

One Tangut religious title supports an “extensive” reading in context. A title beginning with 𗾟 is paired with the Chinese gloss 廣大供養典一部, rendered “Extensive Offering Canon, one volume.” That supports “broad” or “extensive” in this title; it does not prove that 𗾟 has that standalone meaning.

The Tangut script was a writing system used by the Western Xia (Xixia) state. In 1036, ruler Li Yuanhao ordered its use for state-building and Buddhist translation. Tangut manuscripts from Khara-Khoto probably date to the 12th or early 13th century, showing later use of the script.

Is 𗾟 Chinese writing or an emoji?

𗾟 is a Tangut text character, not a Chinese-script character or emoji. Tangut was a distinct historical writing system associated with Western Xia.

How do I type 𗾟?

Enter its Unicode code point in an editor with Unicode input. Use hexadecimal Unicode entry for 17F9F, or U+17F9F if the editor accepts the prefix. A character map that supports Tangut is another option.

If it appears as a box, the text may still be intact: the font needs Tangut glyph coverage. Different fonts can draw the same character differently without changing its text identity.
