U+A79C "Ꞝ" Latin Capital Letter Volapuk Oe is a specialized glyph used in the constructed language Volapük, which was created in the late 19th century by Johann Martin Schleyer. This character represents a specific vowel sound in the language’s orthography, essentially functioning as a variant of the letter O with an umlaut or as a digraph replacement for the Oe combination.
