U+1B070 "𛁰" Hentaigana Letter Te-3 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𛁰
U+1B070 "𛁰" Hentaigana Letter Te-3 is a specific historical variant of the hiragana character for the Japanese syllable "te", used in the pre-modern Japanese writing system known as hentaigana. These alternative kana forms, which were widely employed before the standardization of hiragana in the early 20th century, often originated from cursive abbreviations of entire Chinese characters, and this particular glyph represents a distinct calligraphic style for representing the sound "te". It belongs to the Hentaigana block of the Unicode standard, which was included to support the digitization of historical Japanese texts and to preserve the rich typographical diversity of pre-modern Japanese literature.
