U+147A "" Canadian Syllabics Kwo is a character from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, specifically used to represent the syllable "kwo" in the Inuktitut writing system. This character is part of a larger script devised by missionary James Evans in the 19th century for Indigenous languages in Canada, though it has been adapted for various dialects. The glyph itself is composed of a central triangular shape with a small connecting stem, which distinguishes it from related syllabic forms. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures digital preservation and accessibility for writing and studying Inuktitut and other Canadian Aboriginal languages.
