U+10447 "𐑇" Deseret Small Letter Esh Unicode Character

U+10447 "𐑇" Deseret Small Letter Esh is a letter from the Deseret alphabet, a phonetic script created in the mid 19th century by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints as a simpler alternative to the Latin alphabet for writing English. This specific character represents the "sh" sound, as heard in the word "sheep", and is considered a lowercase form within the alphabet's case pair. The Deseret alphabet was primarily used for a few decades in Utah Territory before falling out of common use, and today the "Esh" letter remains a historical typographic symbol within the Unicode standard for digital text preservation.
