ᗲ
U+15F2 "ᗲ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Gee is a glyph used in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics writing system, specifically representing a syllable in the Carrier language, where it denotes the sound "gee". This character is part of a script historically developed by missionaries and adapted by Indigenous communities across Canada to write various languages, including Carrier, which is spoken in British Columbia. Its design takes the form of a rotated or mirrored shape that reflects the syllabic nature of the script, where each character corresponds to a full syllable rather than a single consonant or vowel, aiding in the preservation and written documentation of the Carrier language.
