U+105A6 "𐖦" Vithkuqi Small Letter Ije Unicode Character

U+105A6 "𐖦" Vithkuqi Small Letter Ije is a character from the Vithkuqi script, an alphabet historically used to write the Vithkuqi language, which was spoken in what is now southern Albania and northwestern Greece. This specific character represents the lowercase form of the letter that corresponds to a sound similar to the English long "e" or the "i" in "machine." The Vithkuqi script was created in the 19th century by the scholar Naum Veqilharxhi as part of an effort to develop a distinct written form for the Albanian language, though its use eventually declined. U+105A6 was added to the Unicode Standard in 2022 as part of a larger block dedicated to preserving this historical script for digital and academic purposes.
