U+2D1F "ⴟ" Georgian Small Letter Jhan Unicode Character

U+2D1F "ⴟ" Georgian Small Letter Jhan is a character from the Georgian script, specifically part of the Nuskhuri or Khutsuri alphabet, which was historically used for ecclesiastical texts. This small letter represents the sound commonly transcribed as "zh" or "j" and corresponds to the modern Mkhedruli uppercase letter Ჟ or Zhani. It is encoded in the Georgian Supplement block of Unicode, which was added to support the complete historical range of Georgian letters, including those used in medieval manuscripts. The character is typically rendered in a distinctive angular style characteristic of the Nuskhuri script, distinguishing it from the more widely used modern Mkhedruli forms.
