U+1D9AE "𝦮" Signwriting Movement-Wallplane Hump Hitting Chest Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𝦮

U+1D9AE "𝦮" Signwriting Movement-Wallplane Hump Hitting Chest is a specific symbol within the SignWriting script, which is designed to notate sign languages in a written form by visually representing the movements, handshapes, and locations of a signer's body. This particular character falls under the "SignWriting Movement" category and depicts a curved or "hump"-shaped movement that makes contact with the chest, occurring along the vertical wallplane, which is an imaginary flat surface parallel to the signer's body. It is used in the detailed transcription of signed languages to indicate a precise, percussive action where a part of the signer's hand or arm curves inward and strikes the chest area, contributing to the notation of specific lexical or grammatical signs with that distinct motion.
