tangut ideograph-1860a

Tangut Ideograph 1860A

5643/6136

A dictionary index places 𘘊 under “a kind of vegetable,” though Tangut context would narrow that broad gloss. The Tangut script was commissioned for the Western Xia state around 1036 to write the Tangut language and signal state identity. Texts remained in use after the state fell in 1227.

Text symbol

What 𘘊 means

The dictionary gives only a broad plant category.

An English index to Li Fanwen’s Tangut-to-Chinese dictionary offers no narrower gloss, so a Tangut sentence would help identify the plant. The Unicode label names the encoded character, not its translation. Chinese and Khitan writing traditions influenced the script, but this is a Tangut word.

Why does 𘘊 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.
