U+16F3D "ð–¼½" Miao Letter Zza Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð–¼½
U+16F3D "ð–¼½" Miao Letter Zza is a specific glyph used in the Pollard script, which was historically employed to write the Miao language, also known as Hmong. It represents a voiced retroflex affricate sound, similar to the "dr" sound in English "drink" but with the tongue curled back. This character is part of the Miao block of Unicode, added to support digital preservation and communication for Miao language communities, particularly those who use the diaspora-based writing system adapted from the Pollard syllabary. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for accurate text representation in modern computing environments.
