Unicode Version 17.0
𞤻
U+1E93B "𞤻" Adlam Small Letter Nya is a glyph from the Adlam script, a writing system created in the 1980s for the Fulani (Fula) language primarily used in West African countries such as Guinea, Senegal, and Mali. This specific letter represents the "ny" sound, akin to the Spanish "ñ" or the French "gn," and is part of the lowercase repertoire of the script, which is written from right to left. The Adlam script was developed by brothers Ibrahima and Abdoulaye Barry to revitalize and standardize the Fulani language's written form, and its inclusion in Unicode ensures digital preservation and global accessibility.
