Unicode Version 17.0
ð–½¾
U+16F7E "ð–½¾" Miao Vowel Sign Ng is a combining diacritical mark used in the Pollard Miao script to modify a consonant symbol, indicating a specific vowel sound. This sign represents the nasalized ng vowel, a distinct phonetic element in certain Miao languages. It is placed above or attached to a base Miao consonant character to alter its pronunciation, following the script's unique system where vowels are indicated as diacritics rather than standalone letters. The character is encoded in the Unicode block for Miao, which was added to support digital representation of this historically significant writing system developed for minority languages in China.
