U+A629 "꘩" Vai Digit Nine Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
꘩
U+A629 "꘩" Vai Digit Nine is a numeral sign from the Vai script, which was developed in the early 19th century in Liberia for writing the Vai language. This specific glyph represents the numerical value nine, forming part of a decimal digit system that Vai scribes created to record numbers in their own writing. Unlike some other scripts where digits derive from Arabic or Latin models, Vai digits are independent symbols, and "꘩" shows a distinctive, curvilinear form typical of the script's logographic and syllabic origins.
