U+10C26 "𐰦" Old Turkic Letter Orkhon Ent is a specific glyph from the Old Turkic script, which was used by early Turkic peoples in Central Asia and Siberia, most notably in the famous Orkhon inscriptions of the 8th century. This particular letter, named "Ent" or sometimes "Eng," represents the velar nasal consonant sound /ŋ/, similar to the "ng" in the English word "sing." Its form is unique to the Orkhon variant of the script, which is written from right to left, and plays a vital role in the accurate transcription of Old Turkic texts that document the history, culture, and language of the Göktürk and Uyghur empires.
