U+1B0AA "𛂪" Hentaigana Letter Hi-2 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𛂪
U+1B0AA "𛂪" Hentaigana Letter Hi-2 is a variant form of the Japanese hiragana character "ひ" (hi), belonging to the set of historic, stylized kana known as Hentaigana, which were used before the modern standardized hiragana system was established in the early 20th century. This specific glyph represents an alternative, often more cursive or calligraphic way to write the syllable "hi," and it was encoded in Unicode as part of the Hentaigana block to preserve the diversity of premodern Japanese writing for digital use and scholarly study.
