Source: Browser Default
U+156E "ᕮ" Canadian Syllabics Ttha is a glyph from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, representing a phonetic sound in certain Indigenous languages of Canada, particularly Inuktitut and Cree. This specific character transcribes the voiceless aspirated dental or alveolar stop sound, similar to the "ttha" combination in English, and is part of a larger syllabic writing system developed in the 19th century for the transcription of various First Nations languages. The character is constructed with a distinct geometric shape that aligns with the visual patterns of the syllabary, which uses rotated and modified forms to denote different vowel sounds attached to a base consonant.
