U+1085 "ႅ" Myanmar Vowel Sign Shan E Above Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+1085 "ႅ" Myanmar Vowel Sign Shan E Above is a combining diacritical mark used in the Shan language, which is part of the Myanmar script block. This character is placed above a consonant to modify its vowel sound to represent the vowel "e" in the Shan language, and it is not typically used as an independent letter but rather as a sign that combines with a base character to form a complete syllable. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard helps support the digital representation and preservation of Shan, a Tai-Kadai language spoken by the Shan people in Myanmar and neighboring regions.
