U+A64C "Ꙍ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Broad Omega Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
Ꙍ
U+A64C "Ꙍ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Broad Omega is a historical glyph used in early Cyrillic script, specifically representing the broad omega form distinct from the standard omega, and it typically appears in Old Church Slavonic manuscripts to denote the phoneme /o/ in certain contexts. Unlike the narrower Cyrillic omega, this version has a wider, more rounded shape and is rarely encountered in modern typography, being primarily of interest to scholars of Slavic paleography and historical linguistics. It forms part of the Cyrillic Extended-B block and was included in Unicode to support accurate digital representation of ancient texts.
