Unicode Version 17.0
ðž ¦
U+1E826 "ðž ¦" Mende Kikakui Syllable M100 E is a component of the Mende Kikakui script, which was developed in the early 20th century for writing the Mende language of Sierra Leone. This syllabic writing system, invented by Mohamed Turay and later standardized by Kisimi Kamara, uses a unique set of characters representing syllables rather than individual letters. Specifically, the syllable "E" is one of many characters in the script, which reflects the phonetic structure of the Mende language and is used in both religious and secular texts, though its practical usage has declined with the adoption of the Latin alphabet.
