U+10487 "𐒇" Osmanya Letter Ra Unicode Character

U+10487 "𐒇" Osmanya Letter Ra is a symbol from the Osmanya script, an alphabet created in the early 20th century by Osman Yusuf Kenadid to write the Somali language, representing the consonant sound "r". This script was part of an effort to provide a native writing system for Somalia, distinct from the Arabic and Latin scripts, and was used briefly before the Latin alphabet became the official writing system for Somali. The letter appears as a distinct glyph in Unicode's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, allowing for digital preservation and representation of this historical orthography in modern text systems.
