U+10B23 "𐬣" Avestan Letter Ngye is a specific glyph used in the Avestan alphabet, which was historically employed to write the sacred texts of the Zoroastrian religion, notably the Avesta. This character represents a consonant sound that is a nasalized palatal approximant, roughly similar to the "ñ" sound in the English word "canyon" but with a more distinct glide. It is part of the Avestan script, an ancient writing system read from right to left, and its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve the digitization and study of this important liturgical language, ensuring that scholars and enthusiasts can accurately transcribe and analyze ancient Zoroastrian manuscripts.
