U+105B1 "𐖱" Vithkuqi Small Letter Re Unicode Character

U+105B1 "𐖱" Vithkuqi Small Letter Re is a letter from the Vithkuqi script, an alphabet historically used for writing the Vithkuqi language, which was developed in the 19th century by the Albanian scholar Naum Veqilharxhi as part of an effort to create a distinct writing system for Albanian. This specific character represents the sound /r/ in the Vithkuqi alphabet, functioning as the lowercase form of the corresponding uppercase letter. Vithkuqi is a unique and relatively obscure script, and its inclusion in the Unicode Standard, through the Vithkuqi block (U+10570 to U+105BF), helps preserve and digitally support this cultural and linguistic heritage for modern use and study.
