U+1CBD "Ჽ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Aen Unicode Character

U+1CBD "Ჽ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Aen is a majuscule form used in the modern Georgian Mtavruli script, which is an all-capitals style often employed for titles, headings, and inscriptions. It corresponds to the Mkhedruli lowercase letter "ა" (U+10D0) and represents the phoneme /a/ in the Georgian language. This character was added to the Unicode Standard as part of the Georgian Extended block to support the typographic distinction between standard capital letters and the historical and official Mtavruli capitals, which are visually distinct from their lowercase equivalents.
