Unicode Version 17.0

𝤘

U+1D918 "𝤘" Signwriting Squeeze Large Multiple is a symbol from the Sutton SignWriting script, which is a writing system designed to visually represent the movements, handshapes, and facial expressions of sign languages. This specific character depicts a squeezing or compressing action performed broadly with both hands or arms in a large, repeated motion, as indicated by the "large multiple" descriptor in its name. It is typically used to transcribe a sign where the space between two active articulators is being narrowed or pressed together in a forceful or emphatic way, often to convey concepts like tightness, pressure, or gathering. As part of the SignWriting repertoire, this glyph helps capture the nuanced dynamics of signed communication in a structured, graphical format.
