Unicode Version 17.0

𛆦

U+1B1A6 "𛆦" Nushu Character-# is a specific glyph from the Nüshu script, a syllabary historically used exclusively by women in the Jiangyong region of Hunan Province, China, to write a local dialect of the Chinese language. This particular character, identified only by its numeric placeholder "#" in standard references, represents one of the hundreds of unique symbols in the script, which was traditionally written in a flowing, cursive style on fans, embroidery, and letters as a form of private communication and cultural expression. Included in Unicode's Nushu block (U+1B170 to U+1B2FF), this character helps preserve an endangered writing system that was nearly lost in the 20th century but has seen a revival in academic and heritage efforts.
