Tangut character 182DA

“tangut ideograph-182da” is a serial label, not a translation; a Tangut dictionary or original passage is needed to read 𘋚. The Tangut script was commissioned in 1036 for the Western Xia state and served official correspondence and Buddhist scripture translation; surviving texts also include Chinese works translated into Tangut. Its forms take visual cues from Chinese writing without descending from it, and Tangut rulers followed Khitan neighbors in creating a state script.
