U+1B1FB "𛇻" Nushu Character-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𛇻

U+1B1FB "𛇻" Nushu Character-# is a glyph from the Nushu script, a unique syllabic writing system historically used exclusively by women in the Jiangyong region of Hunan Province, China. This specific character belongs to the Nushu block of the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, encoded to preserve and digitally represent a script that was once kept secret and passed down through generations as a form of female expression and communication. Despite the character's name ending with a hash symbol indicating it is one of many precomposed Nushu characters, its exact phonetic value or meaning is not individually defined in the Unicode standard, as Nushu characters often function as syllabic representations for local dialects. The inclusion of U+1B1FB in Unicode helps safeguard this endangered cultural heritage, allowing for its study, digital use, and revival in modern contexts.
