Unicode Version 17.0
ꎛ
U+A39B "ꎛ" Yi Syllable Nret is a specific glyph from the Yi script, used historically to write the Yi language (also known as Nuosu) in parts of southwest China. This particular syllable represents the sound "nret" and belongs to the modern standardized set of Yi syllables, which were encoded in Unicode as part of the Yi Syllables block. While the character itself is rarely used outside of linguistic or digital text rendering contexts, it serves to preserve and digitally represent the tonal and phonetic distinctions of the Nuosu language, a key aspect of Yi cultural heritage.
