U+AA4B "ꩋ" Cham Letter Final Ss Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ꩋ
U+AA4B "ꩋ" Cham Letter Final Ss is a glyph from the Cham script, an abugida used historically and in modern times to write the Cham language of Cambodia and Vietnam. This specific character represents a final consonant sound, akin to a sibilant "ss," and is unique in that it only appears in syllable-final position, where it modifies the pronunciation of the preceding vowel. It belongs to the Cham block of Unicode, which was added in version 5.1 in 2008 to support the preservation and digital use of this endangered Southeast Asian script. Proper rendering of "ꩋ" requires a font that includes Cham characters, as it is a rare and specialized letter not present in most standard typefaces.
