U+160C "ᘌ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Mi is a glyph from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, representing a specific syllable in the Carrier language, a member of the Athabaskan language family spoken in parts of British Columbia, Canada. This script was devised by missionary missionaries in the 19th century to write Indigenous languages, and the character "ᘌ" encodes the sound "mi," where the shape of the symbol reflects the phonetic structure of the syllable. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital text can preserve and transmit this culturally significant writing system, supporting language revitalization and communication for Carrier communities.
