Tangut Ideograph 1810F

It is a verb meaning “to meet.”

The gloss comes from a Tangut dictionary entry. Unicode’s name, “Tangut Ideograph-1810F,” is generated from the code point; it identifies the character but does not translate it.

How old is the Tangut script?

The Tangut script began around 1036 under the first Western Xia emperor.

It was created to write Tangut, the language of the Western Xia state in what is now northwestern China. After the state fell to Mongol forces, writing continued through the Yuan and Ming periods and had fallen out of use by the end of the Ming dynasty. Tangut literature includes translations of Chinese and Tibetan works. Scholars rediscovered the script in the late 19th century, and work in the early 20th century enabled much of its decipherment. The year dates the script’s creation, not the first attestation of this individual character.

Which parts make up 𘄏?

Unicode describes three components arranged from left to right.

Its structural description lists 𘤳, 𘨷, then 𘠢. These Tangut components describe the written form; they are not translations or substitutes for the whole character.
