U+1D8AA "𝢪" Signwriting Hand-Circle Index Middle Cross Little Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𝢪
U+1D8AA "𝢪" Signwriting Hand-Circle Index Middle Cross Little is a specific glyph within the SignWriting script, designed to represent a handshape used in sign languages. This character depicts a hand with the index, middle, and little fingers extended and crossed (typically with the middle finger crossing over the index), while the ring finger is tucked down, all contained within a circle that indicates a specific orientation or movement in space. It is one of many combinatorial symbols in the SignWriting system, which allows for detailed notation of hand positions, shapes, and motions to transcribe signed languages in a written form.
