U+16E7F "𖹿" Medefaidrin Small Letter Y is a lowercase letter in the Medefaidrin script, also known as Oberi Okaime, which was created as a constructed language and writing system around 1930 by Christian converts in southeastern Nigeria. This script is used to write the Medefaidrin language, which was developed for liturgical and community purposes, and the character represents the /j/ sound, similar to the English letter Y. The Medefaidrin alphabet includes both uppercase and lowercase forms, with this character being the lowercase counterpart of the uppercase letter U+16E47 "𖹇". Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard since version 11.0 in 2018 helps preserve and digitally support this unique writing system.
