U+16F97 "𖾗" Miao Letter Tone-6 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𖾗

U+16F97 "𖾗" Miao Letter Tone-6 is a tonal marker from the Pollard Miao script, which was historically used to write the A-Hmao (also known as Large Flowery Miao) language in China. This specific character represents the sixth distinct tone in that language, helping to differentiate meaning between otherwise identical syllables. It belongs to the Miao script block in Unicode, which was added to support the preservation and digital encoding of this indigenous writing system. The character's visual form is derived from a combination of Latin letters and unique diacritic shapes, designed to indicate both consonant sounds and the specific tonal contour of the syllable.
