U+1BC0D "𛰍" Duployan Letter D S Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𛰍
U+1BC0D "𛰍" Duployan Letter D S is a glyph from the Duployan shorthand script, which was developed in the late 19th century by Émile Duployé as a system for fast written communication in French and later adapted for English and other languages. This specific character represents the consonant sound "D" followed by an "S" sound, functioning as a digraph in the shorthand notation to streamline writing by combining the two phonetic elements into a single, simplified stroke. The Duployan block in Unicode, where this character resides, was added to support historical and linguistic studies of shorthand systems, preserving a tool once used for rapid transcription in clerical and journalistic contexts.
