Unicode Version 17.0

U+1C98 "Ი" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter In is a majuscule form of the letter "In" used in the modern Georgian Mtavruli script, a monumental uppercase alphabet distinct from the standard Mkhedruli lowercase, primarily employed for titles, headings, and decorative text to convey formality and emphasis. This character represents a specific phoneme in the Georgian language, typically the sound /ɪn/ or a similar vowel, and its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures digital preservation and cross-platform support for Georgian typography.
