U+14BB "ᒻ" Canadian Syllabics M Unicode Character

U+14BB "ᒻ" Canadian Syllabics M is a character from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, representing the consonant sound "m" in various Indigenous writing systems, such as those used for Cree, Inuktitut, and Ojibwe languages. It features a distinctive vertical stem with a small attached loop or mark, differing from other syllabic forms, and it functions as a final consonant symbol, often appearing at the end of a syllable to denote the sound without a following vowel. This character is part of a larger script developed by missionary James Evans in the 19th century, which remains culturally and linguistically vital for writing many Canadian Indigenous languages today.
