Unicode Version 17.0
𛂟
U+1B09F "𛂟" Hentaigana Letter Ha-2 is a specific variant form of the Japanese hiragana character "は" (ha). This character belongs to the Hentaigana block, which encompasses historical, stylistically distinct cursive variants of standard hiragana that were used before the modern standardized script was established in the early 20th century. The "Ha-2" designation indicates it is the second recognized variant form for the syllable "ha", and it represents a particular brushstroke style or calligraphic tradition from premodern Japanese writing. As a heritage letter, it is primarily used today in historical texts, calligraphy, and academic contexts to reflect the original orthography of old Japanese manuscripts.
