Unicode Version 17.0
ꇶ
U+A1F6 "ꇶ" Yi Syllable Gurx is a part of the Yi script, which is used to write the Nuosu (or Liangshan Yi) language spoken primarily in southwestern China. This specific character represents the syllable "gurx," where the final "x" denotes a particular tone in the Nuosu tonal system. The Yi syllabary, codified in the 1970s, consists of over 1,000 such characters, each representing a unique combination of a consonant and vowel with a distinct tone. U+A1F6 is thus a single, indivisible phonetic unit designed for writing the Nuosu language, preserving its linguistic nuances within the Unicode standard.
