U+16AE6 "𖫦" Bassa Vah Letter Wadda Unicode Character

U+16AE6 "𖫦" Bassa Vah Letter Wadda is a specific glyph from the Bassa Vah script, which was historically used to write the Bassa language of Liberia and Sierra Leone. This script, invented around the late 19th or early 20th century by Thomas Narvin Lewis and others, is an alphabet where each character represents a single sound, and the letter Wadda corresponds to the consonant sound /w/ or a similar labial glide. Although the Bassa Vah script saw limited adoption and is now largely replaced by the Latin alphabet for writing Bassa, it has been encoded in Unicode as part of efforts to preserve and digitally represent endangered and historical writing systems.
