Unicode Version 17.0
ᔵ
U+1535 "ᔵ" Canadian Syllabics Ywo is a character used in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics script, which was developed primarily to write Indigenous languages such as Cree, Ojibwe, and Inuktitut. This specific character represents the syllable sound "ywo" and is part of the Western Cree syllabary, where the shape and orientation of the symbol indicate both the consonant and vowel components. It belongs to the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, which was added to the Unicode Standard in 1999 to support the digital preservation and communication of these languages. The character is typically written with a distinct curved or angled form that distinguishes it from other syllabic signs in the same script family.
