Unicode Version 17.0

𐺉

U+10E89 "𐺉" Yezidi Letter Hha is a specific letter used in the Yezidi script, which was officially added to the Unicode Standard in 2022 to support the writing of the Kurmanji dialect of Kurdish as used by the Yezidi religious community. This character represents the voiced pharyngeal fricative sound /ʕ/, similar to the Arabic 'ayn, and is part of a larger effort to digitally preserve and encode the unique religious and cultural texts of the Yezidi people. Its inclusion helps facilitate accurate digital communication and scholarly study of the Yezidi language, which has historically been oral but is increasingly being written in its own distinct alphabet.
