U+1B1F4 "𛇴" Nushu Character-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𛇴

U+1B1F4 "𛇴" Nushu Character-# is a specific glyph from the Nushu script, a syllabic writing system historically created and used exclusively by women in the Jiangyong county of Hunan province, China, to express their personal thoughts, poetry, and stories in a private form of communication. This particular character belongs to a set of encoding in the Unicode Standard's Supplemental Multilingual Plane, representing a unique female cultural heritage that was kept secret from patriarchal society until its rediscovery in the late 20th century. The symbol itself is part of a script that primarily uses dots, curves, and stylized strokes to represent syllabic sounds rather than semantic meanings, and its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent this endangered writing system for future study and cultural continuity.
