U+1E915 "𞤕" Adlam Capital Letter Chi is part of the Adlam script, a writing system created in the 1980s by two brothers, Ibrahima and Abdoulaye Barry, for the Fulani (Fula) language spoken across West Africa. This capital letter represents the sound "chi" (like the "ch" in "cheese") and is used in the modern orthography of Adlam, which is designed to make writing and reading the Fulani language more accessible.
