tangut ideograph-18497

Tangut character 18497

5272/6136

𘒗 belongs to Tangut writing; its Unicode name is an identifier, not a translation. The Tangut (Xixia) script was created around 1036 to write the Tangut language spoken in what is now northwestern China, support Tangut-led Western Xia state-building, and translate Buddhist texts. Its characters resemble Chinese characters and draw on Chinese design principles, but Tangut is a separate script used for centuries after Western Xia fell.

Why does 𘒗 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.
