Unicode Version 17.0

𓀎

U+1300E "𓀎" Egyptian Hieroglyph A012 is a logogram from the Gardiner sign list's category A, which depicts a seated man with his hand to his mouth, typically representing actions related to eating, drinking, speaking, or singing. In the ancient Egyptian writing system, this hieroglyph served as a determinative for words involving these concepts, such as "wnm" (to eat) or "nw" (to see), and it also functioned phonetically for the consonant "m" in certain contexts. It belongs to the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Unicode block, which encodes characters from the Middle Kingdom period, and is rendered in modern digital texts with specialized fonts that support this historic script.
