U+A5D2 "ꗒ" Vai Syllable Ndo Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ꗒ
U+A5D2 "ꗒ" Vai Syllable Ndo is a glyph representing a specific syllable in the Vai script, a writing system traditionally used by the Vai people of Liberia and Sierra Leone. This character corresponds to the sound "ndo," combining a nasal onset with the vowel "o," and is part of the Vai syllabary, which was independently developed in the 1830s. The Vai script is notable for being one of the few indigenous African scripts to gain widespread use before the colonial era, and its inclusion in Unicode ensures digital preservation and cross-platform support for Vai language texts and cultural heritage.
