U+1050E "𐔎" Elbasan Letter Je Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1050E "𐔎" Elbasan Letter Je is a letter from the Elbasan script, an alphabetic writing system invented in the 18th century for the Albanian language, specifically used in the Elbasan Gospel manuscript. This character represents the phonetic value of the sound "je" or a similar palatal approximant, functioning as a consonant in the script's inventory. The Elbasan script, which includes 40 distinct letters and shows influences from Greek and Latin alphabets, was primarily used in the central Albanian region of Elbasan for religious texts before being largely supplanted by the modern Latin-based Albanian alphabet. The letter Je is one of several unique characters in this historical script that reflects a distinct stage in the development of written Albanian.
