Unicode Version 17.0
𖵧
U+16D67 "𖵧" Kirat Rai Vowel Sign E is a combining diacritical mark used in the Kirat Rai script, which was added to the Unicode Standard in version 16.0 as part of the Kirat Rai block. This character is designed to modify the sound of a base consonant by representing the vowel sound "e", functioning as a dependent vowel sign that attaches to a preceding consonant letter in the orthography of languages such as Bantawa or other Kirati languages spoken in Nepal and northeastern India. Its inclusion in Unicode supports the digital representation and preservation of the Kirat Rai writing system, which is historically used for transcribing various Tibeto-Burman languages in the region.
