U+1B299 "𛊙" Nushu Character-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𛊙

U+1B299 "𛊙" Nushu Character-# is a specific glyph from the Nushu script, a syllabic writing system historically created and used exclusively by women in the Jiangyong region of Hunan Province, China, to express their personal thoughts and emotions, often in poetry and correspondence, away from the male-dominated classical Chinese literary tradition. This particular codepoint, part of the Nushu block added to Unicode in 2017 with version 10.0, represents one of several hundred distinct characters that each denote a syllable in the local Xiangnan Tuhua dialect, though its precise phonetic value and meaning remain tied to the private, song-like texts that preserve this endangered cultural heritage.
