U+16B5B "𖭛" Pahawh Hmong Number Tens Unicode Character

U+16B5B "𖭛" Pahawh Hmong Number Tens is a numeral symbol within the Pahawh Hmong script, a writing system created in the mid-20th century by Shong Lue Yang for the Hmong language of Southeast Asia and the diaspora. This specific character represents the numerical value of ten, functioning as part of a unique base-20 numeral system where digits are written as distinct characters rather than using decimal place value. Unlike typical Western numerals, Pahawh Hmong numbers are logographic, meaning each digit from one to ten, as well as higher multiples, has its own standalone glyph. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard's Pahawh Hmong block, which was added in version 7.0 of 2014 to preserve and support digital use of this culturally significant script. Its design reflects the script's visual style, with rounded strokes and a distinct appearance that sets it apart from both Latin and other Asian numeral systems.
