U+1B0D5 "𛃕" Hentaigana Letter Me-2 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𛃕

U+1B0D5 "𛃕" Hentaigana Letter Me-2 is a specific variant form of the Japanese hiragana character for the syllable "me," belonging to the historical and cursive script known as hentaigana, which were alternative, non-standard kana used widely before the modern standardization of Japanese writing in the early 20th century. This particular glyph, designated as "Me-2," represents one of several historical handwritten variations of the sound "me" that were derived from the full cursive form of the Chinese character 女 (meaning woman), and it is encoded in Unicode's Hentaigana block to support the accurate digital representation and preservation of classical Japanese texts and calligraphy.
