U+167D "ᙽ" Canadian Syllabics Woods-Cree Thwaa Unicode Character

U+167D "ᙽ" Canadian Syllabics Woods-Cree Thwaa is a glyph from the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block, used to represent a specific syllabic sound in the Woods Cree dialect of the Cree language. It is composed of a vertical stem with a small triangular or chevron-like mark attached to its upper right side, which distinguishes it from related characters denoting other consonant-vowel combinations. This symbol, like others in the syllabary, was developed by missionaries and Indigenous communities for writing Cree languages, and it remains part of modern digital text encoding to support the accurate digital representation of Indigenous languages in Canada.
