U+1412 "ᐒ" Canadian Syllabics Wo is a character from the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, specifically used in the writing system for the Cree language (and sometimes Inuktitut), where it represents the syllable sound "wo". This logographic script, developed in the 19th century, combines geometric shapes to denote syllables, and the character ᐒ is constructed with a rotated V‑like form and a dot, placing it within the Western Cree variant of the system. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital text can correctly represent this traditional writing, preserving the linguistic heritage of Indigenous communities in Canada.
