U+1B0FF "𛃿" Hentaigana Letter Re-2 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𛃿
U+1B0FF "𛃿" Hentaigana Letter Re-2 is a rare and historical variant of the Japanese hiragana character "れ" (re), belonging to the set of hentaigana, which are alternate, stylized cursive forms of kana that were widely used in Japan before the standardization of the modern hiragana syllabary in the early 20th century. This specific glyph represents the sound "re" and was encoded in Unicode to support accurate digital representation of premodern Japanese texts, such as manuscripts and woodblock prints, allowing scholars and enthusiasts to preserve and study the nuanced orthographic diversity of classical written Japanese without requiring special font or software workarounds.
