Unicode Version 17.0

U+A3BE "ꎾ" Yi Syllable Shurx is a character from the Yi script, which is used to write the Yi language (also known as Nuosu), primarily spoken in southwestern China. This particular character represents the syllable pronounced as "shurx," where the "x" indicates a specific tonal value in the standard romanization of Yi. It belongs to the Yi Syllables block of Unicode, which was encoded to support the modern standardized syllabary developed in the 1970s to unify various regional Yi scripts. In written Yi, each syllable is represented by a unique glyph, and "ꎾ" is one of many characters that enable the digital preservation and communication of this vibrant minority language.
