U+10467 "𐑧" Shavian Letter Egg is one of the 48 letters in the Shavian alphabet, a phonetic writing system designed for the English language and named after playwright George Bernard Shaw. This specific character represents the short "e" sound, as heard in the word "egg" itself, and it is used to transcribe the vowel found in words like "red" or "bed." The Shavian alphabet was created to simplify English spelling by providing a one-to-one correspondence between sounds and symbols, and the letter Egg was a core part of that goal.
