Unicode Version 17.0
Ꮓ
U+13C3 "Ꮓ" Cherokee Letter No is a character from the Cherokee syllabary, representing the phonetic sound "no." This script was created by Sequoyah in the early 19th century to transcribe the Cherokee language, and each character corresponds to a specific syllable rather than a single consonant or vowel. The letter "Ꮓ" is part of the Cherokee block in Unicode, allowing for digital representation and preservation of the language, which is still used by Cherokee communities in the United States, particularly in Eastern Oklahoma and North Carolina. Its inclusion in Unicode supports efforts to maintain and revitalize Indigenous linguistic heritage through modern technology.
