ꍱ
U+A371 "ꍱ" Yi Syllable Chux is a character from the Yi script, specifically used for transcribing the Northern Yi language (also known as Nuosu) spoken primarily in southwestern China. This character represents a distinct syllable in the Yi phonetic system, with a pronunciation corresponding to "chux" in the standard Romanization of the language. It belongs to the Yi Syllables block, which was added to Unicode in version 3.0 to support the unique and complex syllabary of the Yi writing system. In written Nuosu, this character is used in the same way as others in its set to form words and convey meaning, preserving the linguistic heritage of the Yi people.
