U+15C1 "ᗁ" Canadian Syllabics Sayisi Hi is a character from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block used primarily to write the Sayisi dialect of Dene, a Northern Athabaskan language spoken in parts of Canada. This specific syllabic represents a syllable that approximates the sound "hi" or a similar voiceless vowel onset. The character is part of a broader writing system developed in the 19th century by missionary James Evans and later adapted for various Indigenous languages. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and support digital communication for the Sayisi community.
