U+1045B "𐑛" Shavian Letter Dead Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+1045B "𐑛" Shavian Letter Dead is a symbol from the Shavian alphabet, a constructed writing system designed in the 1960s to phonetically represent the English language, replacing the standard Latin alphabet with a more consistent one-to-one correspondence between sounds and letters. This specific character represents the voiced dental fricative sound, like the "th" in the English word "the" or "this," and its name "Dead" is derived from the Shavian naming convention that uses common words to label each letter, with "Dead" chosen as a mnemonic because the initial sound of the word matches the letter's phonetic value.
