Unicode Version 17.0
𐑜
U+1045C "𐑜" Shavian Letter Gag is a symbol from the Shavian alphabet, a phonetic writing system designed for the English language as an alternative to the Latin alphabet. This specific character represents the voiced velar stop sound, equivalent to the English letter "g" as in the word "go". Part of the Shavian alphabet's consonant set, 𐑜 was created to simplify English spelling by providing a one to one correspondence between sounds and letters, though the alphabet itself remains largely experimental and is not widely adopted.
