U+160E "ᘎ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Yu is a glyph from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, representing a syllabic character used in the Carrier language, a Northern Athabaskan language spoken in parts of British Columbia, Canada. This character corresponds to the sound "yu" and is part of a writing system historically developed by missionaries and adapted by Indigenous communities for writing their languages. The symbol is composed of a geometric shape typical of Canadian syllabic scripts, which often rely on orientation and rotation to denote different vowel values. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally support the linguistic heritage of the Carrier people, enabling accurate text representation, digital communication, and cultural documentation in modern computing environments.
