Unicode Version 17.0
𖨱
U+16A31 "𖨱" Bamum Letter Phase-F Ren is part of the Bamum script, which was developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the Bamum kingdom of present-day Cameroon as a writing system for the Bamum language. This specific letter belongs to Phase F, the final and most refined stage of the script’s evolution, and represents the sound "ren" or "rÉ›n" in the language. It was encoded in Unicode version 6.0 in 2010 as part of the Bamum Supplement block, helping preserve and digitally enable this historically significant writing system that went through several stages of simplification.
