U+16A1F "𖨟" Bamum Letter Phase-F Peux Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+16A1F "𖨟" Bamum Letter Phase-F Peux is a grapheme from the Bamum script, a writing system originally created in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for the Bamum language of Cameroon. This specific letter belongs to the "Phase-F" stage of the script, which was a significant revision that simplified and standardized many earlier cursive forms into a more linear and accessible alphabet. Phonetically, it represents the sound roughly corresponding to "p" or "b" with a specific tonal or contextual variant. As part of the Bamum Supplement block in Unicode, "Peux" is used to preserve and digitally represent historical texts written in this later stage of the script, aiding in modern linguistic and cultural documentation of the Bamum people.
