Unicode Version 17.0
ꚲ
U+A6B2 "ꚲ" Bamum Letter Njaem is part of the Bamum script, an indigenous writing system developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for the Bamum language spoken in present day Cameroon. This specific character represents the syllable or sound "njaem" and belongs to a subset of the script known as Stage D Bamum, which was refined from earlier iterations to improve readability and standardization. The Bamum script, including this letter, is encoded in the Unicode Standard to support digital preservation and modern communication for the Bamum people, though its use today is largely scholarly and cultural rather than widespread in everyday writing.
