U+1E2CF "𞋏" Wancho Letter Sha is a symbol from the Wancho script, which was developed in the 20th century for writing the Wancho language spoken by the Wancho Naga people in northeastern India and parts of Myanmar. This particular character represents the consonant sound "sha," similar to the English "sh," and is part of a larger alphabetic system that was officially encoded in the Unicode Standard in 2018 under the Wancho block.
