Unicode Version 17.0

𐺃

U+10E83 "𐺃" Yezidi Letter Phe is part of the Yezidi script, which was added to the Unicode Standard in 2020 with the release of version 13.0 to support the liturgical and everyday writing needs of the Yezidi language. This particular character represents a consonant sound, akin to the English "ph" or "f," and plays a role in accurately transcribing Yezidi phonetics, which are essential for preserving religious texts and oral traditions. The development of the Yezidi alphabet was spearheaded by the late Sheikh Ezadin Berasi in the 20th century to create a distinct written form for the Yezidi people, and the inclusion of this letter in Unicode helps facilitate digital communication, education, and cultural preservation for the community.
