U+10364 "𐍤" Old Permic Letter Chery Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𐍤
U+10364 "𐍤" Old Permic Letter Chery is a letter from the Old Permic script, an alphabet created in the 14th century by Saint Stephen of Perm for writing the Komi language. This specific character represents the sound /tɕ/ or a similar affricate, akin to the "ch" in English "church". It was part of a standardized writing system used primarily for religious texts and liturgical purposes in the medieval Perm region of northeastern Europe. While the script fell out of common use by the 17th century, being largely replaced by Cyrillic, the Old Permic Letter Chery survives in Unicode as a historical and linguistic artifact, allowing scholars and enthusiasts to digitally preserve and study this unique writing tradition.
