U+11EEA "饝华" Makasar Letter Ja Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
饝华
U+11EEA "饝华" Makasar Letter Ja is a character from the Makasar script, a Brahmic-based abugida historically used to write the Makassarese language in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. This specific letter represents the sound "ja" and is part of the Makasar block in Unicode, which was added in version 9.0 in 2016 to preserve and digitally support the endangered script. The Makasar script was traditionally used for writing on palm leaves and documents before being largely supplanted by the Latin alphabet, and the inclusion of the "Ja" character in Unicode helps facilitate modern digital use, including in text processing and historical studies of the language.
