U+1B0F7 "𛃷" Hentaigana Letter Ri-7 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1B0F7 "𛃷" Hentaigana Letter Ri-7 is a specific variant form, or hentaigana, of the Japanese hiragana character "り" (ri), which was historically used in Japanese writing before the standardization of the modern kana syllabary in the early 20th century. This particular glyph represents one of several alternative cursive styles derived from a Chinese character (kanji) used for its phonetic value, and it appears in the Unicode standard as part of the Hentaigana block, added to preserve historical and calligraphic scripts for scholarly and digital typographic purposes. Its inclusion allows for the accurate representation of premodern Japanese texts, where such varied letterforms were commonly employed to add aesthetic or stylistic nuance in writing.
