U+2C5D "ⱝ" Glagolitic Small Letter Trokutasti A Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ⱝ
U+2C5D "ⱝ" Glagolitic Small Letter Trokutasti A is a variant form of the letter "A" within the Glagolitic script, an early Slavic alphabet created by Saints Cyril and Methodius in the 9th century. Its name "Trokutasti" means "triangular" in some Slavic languages, describing the distinct angular or triangular shape of this glyph, which sets it apart from the more common round Glagolitic "A." This character was used historically in certain manuscripts for writing Old Church Slavonic, representing the same vowel sound as its counterpart, but it is now largely of interest to paleographers and linguists studying medieval Slavic texts.
