U+15F1 "ᗱ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Ge Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+15F1 "ᗱ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Ge is a glyph from the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, specifically part of the script used historically for writing the Carrier language, also known as Dakelh, spoken by the Carrier people in British Columbia, Canada. This character represents the syllabic sound "ge" in that writing system, which was developed by missionaries and adapted by indigenous communities in the 19th century. While the Carrier script is less widely used today, "ᗱ" remains a significant element of the Unicode standard, preserving the linguistic heritage and typographic identity of the Carrier language within digital contexts.
