Unicode Version 17.0

𐑒

U+10452 "𐑒" Shavian Letter Kick is a specific glyph within the Shavian alphabet, a phonetic script designed for the English language. This character represents the voiceless velar plosive sound, equivalent to the English letter "k" as in "kite". The Shavian alphabet was created by Ronald Kingsley Read as a more efficient and logical way to write English phonetically, with each character mapping to a distinct speech sound. The Letter Kick is one of 48 letters in the alphabet, and its distinctive curved shape reflects the script's goal of being both simple to write and unambiguous in pronunciation.
