tangut ideograph-17fff

Tangut Character 17FFF

4096/6136

𗿿 means “to tread” or “step on” in Tangut; scholars reconstruct its reading as djij. It comes from a historical script. A box means your font lacks Tangut coverage.

Text symbol

What 𗿿 means

It describes putting a foot down on something. A Tangut dictionary gives that gloss, and a tax-record phrase preserves the word.

Created around 1036 to write Tangut, the language of the Western Xia state in northwest China, the script later served government and Buddhist texts into the Yuan and Ming periods; it was obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty.
