U+10379 "𐍹" Combining Old Permic Letter Nenoe Unicode Character

U+10379 "𐍹" Combining Old Permic Letter Nenoe is a combining diacritical mark used in the historical Old Permic script, which was developed in the 14th century by Saint Stephen of Perm for writing the Komi language and other related languages of the Permic branch of the Uralic family. This character represents the sound typically transcribed as "ń" and is applied as a modifier to attach to a preceding base letter, altering its pronunciation to indicate palatalization or a specific nasal articulation. While the Old Permic script is largely archaic and not commonly used in modern digital contexts, this combining character is encoded in Unicode to support scholarly and historical textual representation, ensuring accurate preservation and study of early written records from the region.
