U+A26C "ꉬ" Yi Syllable Nge Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+A26C "ꉬ" Yi Syllable Nge is part of the Yi Syllables block, encoding a specific syllable from the Modern Yi language (also known as Nuosu), which is primarily spoken in the Liangshan region of southwestern China. This character represents the sound "nge" and is one of a series of standard logograms used in the unified Yi script, which was standardized in the 1970s to replace the older, more complex Yi writing systems. In written Nuosu, "ꉬ" functions as a syllabic character rather than a letter in an alphabet, contributing to the representation of the language’s tonal and phonetic structure.
