Unicode Version 17.0
ð– Ž
U+1680E "ð– Ž" Bamum Letter Phase-A Maemveux is part of the Bamum script, a writing system historically used for the Bamum language in the Grassfields region of Cameroon. This specific character represents a syllabic sign from the script's initial development stage known as Phase A, which was created by King Njoya in the late 19th or early 20th century as part of his multistage reform of the script. It corresponds to the sound "maemveux" in the Bamum language, reflecting the careful phonetic inventory that King Njoya and his scribes devised to accurately write the language's tones and syllables.
