tangut ideograph-1857e

Tangut Ideograph 1857E

5503/6136

𘕾 is the Tangut character for “all.” The script adapted Chinese character forms for a different language, and this glyph needs a Tangut-capable font to display.

Text symbol

What 𘕾 means

Its recorded gloss is “all.” A Tangut wordbook indexes 𘕾 as L5851; a surviving Buddhist manuscript preserves its reconstructed reading, transcribed in scholarly Latin letters as njijr. That spelling is a research convention, not a guide to English pronunciation.

The Western Xia state commissioned Tangut writing around 1036 for administration, schools, and translations of Buddhist and Chinese works. The script drew on Chinese character forms but represented a different language, so knowing Chinese does not make Tangut readable. The earliest transmitted Tangut document dates to 1072; Buddhist material from 1502 shows the script remained in religious use much later.

Why does 𘕾 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.
