Tangut Ideograph-18550

5457/6136

𘕐 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label is an identifier, not a translation or a reading. The Tangut script emerged around 1036 in the Western Xia state to write the Tangut language, drawing on Chinese writing and the writing system of the Khitan people. The earliest surviving example is an official document from 1072; later texts include Buddhist and legal works, and the latest known inscription dates to 1502.

Is 𘕐 a Chinese character?

No. 𘕐 belongs to the separate Tangut script, which was influenced by Chinese and Khitan writing. That influence does not make this glyph a Chinese Han character.
