U+105BB "𐖻" Vithkuqi Small Letter Y Unicode Character

U+105BB "𐖻" Vithkuqi Small Letter Y is a character from the Vithkuqi script, an alphabet historically used to write the Vithkuqi language, which was spoken in the southwestern Balkans. This particular character represents the small, or lowercase, form of the letter "Y" in the script, serving as a phonetic symbol for the vowel sound /y/ (like the French "u" or German "ü"). Vithkuqi was briefly revived in the 19th century as part of a cultural movement to create a distinctive Albanian alphabet, but it eventually fell out of use, making this character a rare and specialized glyph primarily of interest to linguists, historians, and digital typography enthusiasts.
