Unicode Version 17.0

ð–¡”

U+16854 "ð–¡”" Bamum Letter Phase-A Nen is a distinctive glyph from the Bamum script, which was originally developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in what is now Cameroon by King Njoya and his scribes to write the Bamum language. Part of the Phase A subset, which represents the earliest and most pictographic stage of the script’s evolution, this specific letter corresponds to the sound "nen" and appears as a stylized, abstract shape among a series of characters that were later simplified and reorganized into more standardized forms in subsequent script phases.
