U+2CCA "Ⳋ" Coptic Capital Letter Dialect-P Hori Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
Ⳋ
U+2CCA "Ⳋ" Coptic Capital Letter Dialect-P Hori is a glyph used specifically in the Coptic script to represent a variant form of the letter Hori that appears in the Dialect-P, or P-Dialect, version of the Coptic language, which was spoken in certain regions of Egypt. This capital letter is distinct from the standard Coptic Hori (ⳉ) and is employed primarily in scholarly or liturgical texts to denote a particular phonetic or dialectal pronunciation. It belongs to the Coptic Unicode block and serves to preserve the nuances of ancient Egyptian Christian writing, where different dialects like Bohairic, Sahidic, and the less common P-Dialect required specialized characters for accurate textual representation.
