Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+168F9 "ð–£¹" Bamum Letter Phase-D Nggaamae is a specific glyph from the modernized, Phase-D stage of the Bamum script, which was developed in the early 20th century in what is now Cameroon to write the Bamum language. This character represents the syllable "nggaamae" and is part of a large set of syllabic characters that evolved from an earlier pictographic system under the reform efforts of King Ibrahim Njoya. As a Phase-D letter, it reflects a more streamlined and standardized typographic form intended for efficient writing and printing, and it is encoded in Unicode's Supplementary Multilingual Plane to support digital preservation and accurate rendering of this historic West African writing system.
