Unicode Version 17.0
ᗒ
U+15D2 "ᗒ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier We is a symbol from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, specifically representing the syllable "we" in the Carrier language, an Athabaskan language spoken by the Dakelh people in British Columbia, Canada. This character is derived from the script created by missionaries and adapted for the unique phonetic requirements of Carrier, where the shape and orientation of the glyph denote distinct vowel and consonant combinations. While less commonly used than the Cree or Ojibwe variants, "ᗒ" plays a role in preserving and documenting the linguistic heritage of the Carrier community.
