U+A5F5 "ꗵ" Vai Syllable Dhe Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ꗵ
U+A5F5 "ꗵ" Vai Syllable Dhe is a glyph from the Vai syllabary, a writing system historically used for the Vai language spoken in Liberia and Sierra Leone. This specific character represents the syllable "dhe," which is one of many syllabic units in the Vai script, a system created in the early 19th century by Momolu Duwalu Bukele. The Vai script is notable for being one of the few indigenous African writing systems with a continuous tradition, and U+A5F5 is encoded in the Unicode Standard to support digital text and modern communication for Vai speakers and researchers.
