Unicode Version 17.0

U+1467 "ᑧ" Canadian Syllabics Tte is a character in the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, representing a specific syllable in certain Indigenous writing systems of Canada. This character is used primarily in the Cree language orthography, where it denotes the consonant-vowel combination of a "t" sound with the vowel "e," often transliterated as "tte" in Roman script. Its distinctive shape, featuring a rounded top with a vertical line, is part of a larger set of syllabic characters developed in the 19th century by missionary James Evans to facilitate literacy in Indigenous languages. The inclusion of ᑧ in the Unicode standard helps preserve and digitally represent these languages, supporting modern communication and cultural heritage.
