𘈩

tangut ideograph-18229

Tangut numeral one

𘈩 means “one” in Tangut; scholars write its reconstructed reading as *lew. It counts, helps form “first,” and supplies the “one” in fractions such as “one third.” Tangut writing was created for the Western Xia state around 1036 and remained in use through 1502, so the character points to Tangut history or specialist study.

Text symbol

What 𘈩 means

It means “one” by itself. Tangut writing served the Western Xia state in official records, Buddhist translations, and works written in Chinese.

Its value stays numerical, but placement changes the job: 𘈩𗡪 means “first,” with 𗡪 as an ending added after a number. In 𘕕𘊲𘂤𘈩, the final character supplies “one” in “one third.”

Historical and specialist: it belongs in material about the Tangut language or script.

It shares a meaning with Chinese 一, but the two characters are not interchangeable.

Questions people ask

Why does 𘈩 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
