U+145E "ᑞ" Canadian Syllabics West-Cree Two Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᑞ
U+145E "ᑞ" Canadian Syllabics West-Cree Two is a symbol from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, used in the writing system for certain Cree dialects, particularly Western Cree. This character represents the syllable sound "two" in that language, and it is composed of a rotated or flipped variant of the standard syllabic form, often written as a single glyph with a specific orientation to distinguish it from similar syllabic characters. It functions as part of a logographic or syllabic script where each character corresponds to a full syllable, and it is encoded in Unicode to support digital representation and preservation of the linguistic heritage of Canadian Indigenous communities.
