U+10B2A "𐬪" Avestan Letter Yye is a character from the Avestan script used to represent a specific phoneme in the Avestan language, an ancient Iranian language primarily known as the language of the Zoroastrian scriptures. This letter corresponds to the sound /j/ similar to the English letter 'y' in "yes", and it belongs to a segment of the Unicode Standard designed to support the accurate digital representation of historical texts and manuscripts. The inclusion of the Avestan block in Unicode helps scholars, linguists, and cultural preservers to encode, study, and share inscriptions and liturgical works from Zoroastrianism without the loss of phonetic or orthographic nuance.
