U+1B194 "𛆔" Nushu Character-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𛆔

U+1B194 "𛆔" Nushu Character-# is a glyph from the Nushu script, a syllabary historically used exclusively by women in the Jiangyong region of Hunan Province, China. This script, which dates back several centuries, was developed as a means of women’s communication and expression in a society where formal education was largely denied to them, allowing them to write letters, poems, and stories in their own language. The specific character bears a numeric placeholder in its name because Nushu was only partially decoded and inventoried by Unicode, representing a system that often includes thousands of distinct but frequently unlabeled syllabic symbols. By including this character in the Unicode Standard under the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, digital preservation efforts ensure that this unique cultural heritage can be studied, typed, and transmitted in modern computing environments.
