U+15CC "ᗌ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Re Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+15CC "ᗌ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Re is a glyph from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, specifically representing the sound "re" in the Carrier language, an Indigenous language spoken in central British Columbia, Canada. This character is part of a writing system adapted from Latin script by missionaries in the 19th century to transcribe various First Nations languages, with the Carrier syllabary being a distinct variant used primarily by the Dakelh people. The symbol itself resembles a simplified, angular form of the Latin letter "R" with a small vertical stroke, encoding a phonetic syllable rather than an individual consonant or vowel, reflecting the syllabic nature of the script. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally support the Carrier language, enabling its use in modern computing and text processing.
