𖤈
U+16908 "𖤈" Bamum Letter Phase-D Mfeut is a glyph from the Bamum script, which was developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the Bamum Kingdom of present-day Cameroon, representing a specific syllable or sound within this writing system. This character belongs to Phase D, a later stage of the script's evolution under the reign of King Njoya, who oversaw multiple reforms to simplify and standardize the alphabet. The name "Mfeut" suggests a phonetic value related to the syllable "mfeu" or a similar sound, and the character is encoded in the Bamum Supplement block of the Unicode Standard, allowing for its digital representation and use in modern text processing.
