U+A947 "ꥇ" Rejang Vowel Sign I Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+A947 "ꥇ" Rejang Vowel Sign I is a combining diacritical mark used in the Rejang script, an abugida historically employed to write the Rejang language of Sumatra, Indonesia. This character represents a vowel sign for the sound /i/, and when it is attached to a consonant base, it modifies the inherent vowel to produce the "i" sound, functioning as a dependent vowel sign that is always placed after the consonant character it modifies. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent the Rejang language and its unique script, which is an important part of the cultural heritage of the Rejang people.
