tangut ideograph-183f4

Tangut Character 183F4

5109/6136

𘏴 has a scholarly reconstructed Tangut reading, ɣor², but its meaning remains unclear as of 2026. The first sound is a voiced scraping sound made at the back of the mouth; raised 2 marks a Tangut pitch distinction. It belongs to a historical script, and a Tangut-capable font may be needed to display it.

Text symbol

What 𘏴 means

Read ɣor² as a reconstructed sound, not a translation.

Is 𘏴 Chinese?

No. It belongs to Tangut, a separate script.

Created around 1036 CE under Western Xia (Xixia), Tangut drew on Chinese writing but recorded the Tangut language. It served the state and Buddhist texts, remained in use after Western Xia, then died out. A manuscript from Khara-khoto, a ruined city, probably dates to the 12th or early 13th century.

Why does 𘏴 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.

Why is 𘏴 a box on my screen?

fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
