U+1BC52 "ð›±’" Duployan Letter Eu Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð›±’
U+1BC52 "ð›±’" Duployan Letter Eu is a symbol from the Duployan shorthand script, a system of phonetic writing invented in the 19th century by French priest Émile Duployé for French, English, and other languages, and later adapted for Indigenous languages of North America like Chinook Jargon and Plains Cree. This particular character represents the diphthong or vowel sound "eu" as in the French "peu" or English "few", and its appearance as a distinct letter allows for precise transcription of that sound in shorthand. The Duployan script's inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally support these minority writing systems, enabling their use in computing and text processing.
