Unicode Version 17.0

U+A466 "ꑦ" Yi Syllable Xuo is a specific graphic symbol within the Yi script, a syllabic writing system historically used for the Yi languages of southwestern China, primarily in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi. This character represents the syllable "xuo," pronounced with the tone indicated by its standard diacritic marking in the modern standardized Yi syllabary, which was officially adopted in the 1970s and derives from the traditional, non-standardized logographic script known as "classical Yi." Part of the Unicode Yi Syllables block, "ꑦ" enables digital representation and text processing of this syllable, supporting the written form of the Nuosu language (often referred to as "Standard Yi") in modern communication and archival preservation.
