U+0EDE "ໞ" Lao Letter Khmu Go Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ໞ
U+0EDE "ໞ" Lao Letter Khmu Go is a distinct glyph from the Lao script, specifically used to represent a sound in the Khmu language, a Mon-Khmer language spoken primarily in Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, and China. This character was added to the Unicode Standard as part of the Lao block to facilitate accurate digital representation of the Khmu language, where it denotes a voiced velar stop that is different from the standard Lao consonant "Go". Its inclusion supports linguistic diversity and ensures that written communication in Khmu can be digitized without relying on ad-hoc substitutions or missing characters.
