U+1E2CD "𞋍" Wancho Letter Fa Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𞋍
U+1E2CD "𞋍" Wancho Letter Fa is a character from the Wancho script, which was added to the Unicode Standard in 2019 as part of version 12.0 to support the Wancho language spoken by the Wancho Naga people in northeastern India and parts of Myanmar. This letter represents the consonant sound "fa" and is used in writing the phonological system of the Wancho language, which has a rich tradition of oral literature and is now being preserved through a standardized orthography. The Wancho script itself was developed in the 1950s by teacher and cultural advocate Shri Banwang Losu, and its inclusion in Unicode helps ensure digital preservation and accessibility for the Wancho community.
