Source: Browser Default
U+1047B "𐑻" Shavian Letter Err is part of the Shavian alphabet, a phonetic script designed for the English language to simplify spelling by representing each distinct sound with a single character. This particular letter corresponds to the /ɜː/ sound, as heard in words like "nurse" or "her," and is visually characterized by a tall, upright stem with a curved hook at the top, differentiating it from other Shavian vowels. It was created as part of a mid-20th century effort by George Bernard Shaw's legacy to reform English orthography, and is now encoded in the Unicode Standard for digital use.
