U+A36A "ꍪ" Yi Syllable Chox Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+A36A "ꍪ" Yi Syllable Chox is a specific glyph from the Yi script, a syllabary used historically for the Yi languages spoken primarily in southwestern China, particularly in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. This character, pronounced /tʂʰo˧/ in standard Nuosu, the most common written form of Yi, represents the syllable "chox" where the final "x" denotes it carries the mid level tone. As part of the modern standardized Yi syllabary, it was encoded in Unicode to support digital communication and preservation of this minority language, reflecting efforts to include the rich linguistic diversity of China's ethnic groups in global text processing systems.
