U+1D981 "𝦁" Signwriting Travel-Floorplane Rotation-Floorplane Single Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𝦁
U+1D981 "𝦁" Signwriting Travel-Floorplane Rotation-Floorplane Single is a specific symbol within the SignWriting script used to notate sign languages, representing a combination of movement and rotation in a single motion. The "Travel-Floorplane" part of its name indicates that the movement occurs along a horizontal plane parallel to the floor, while "Rotation-Floorplane" specifies that the hand or symbol also rotates within that same horizontal plane. The term "Single" clarifies that this glyph encodes one distinct, unified action rather than a sequence of separate movements. This character is part of the Sutton SignWriting system, which aims to provide a way to write the physical gestures of sign languages in a visual, iconic form.
