Source: Browser Default
U+1637 "ᘷ" Canadian Syllabics Carrier Tlhee is a glyph from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, representing a specific syllable in the Carrier language, an Indigenous language spoken in parts of British Columbia, Canada. This character, pronounced as "tlhee," is composed of a distinct shape that combines a central vertical stem with a left-facing hook and a rightward-angled top, used to denote a voiceless lateral affricate sound similar to "tl" in English. The inclusion of this character in Unicode supports the digital preservation and typing of the Carrier writing system, which was developed by missionaries in the 19th century and remains culturally significant for the Dakelh people.
