Source: Noto Sans Ethiopic Source: Browser Default

U+126E "" Ethiopic Syllable Vo is a glyph belonging to the Ethiopic script, primarily used for writing languages such as Amharic and Tigrinya in the Horn of Africa. It represents the syllable pronounced as "vo," combining the consonant sound /v/ with the vowel /o/, and is part of a larger syllabary system where characters are modified to denote different vowel tones. This specific syllable is less common in Ethiopic languages compared to others, as the /v/ sound is not native to the Ge’ez-derived script but was added to accommodate loanwords and phonetic diversity. In Unicode, it is encoded in the range for Ethiopic syllabic characters, ensuring its proper display and digital interchange across modern text systems.
