U+1E5D0 "" Ol Onal Letter O Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1E5D0 "" Ol Onal Letter O is a character from the Ol Onal script, a lesser-known writing system used historically for the Oromo language in parts of the Horn of Africa, specifically representing the vowel sound /o/ in that alphabet. It is encoded in the Unicode Standard's supplementary plane as part of the Ol Onal block, which was added to support the preservation and digital representation of this indigenous script. This letter, along with others in its set, was unified in Unicode to help linguists, historians, and the Oromo community maintain access to written records and cultural heritage. Its visual design reflects the script's distinctive geometric style, with a rounded or angular shape typical of Ol Onal graphemes.
