U+19C0 "ᧀ" New Tai Lue Vowel Sign Iy Unicode Character

U+19C0 "ᧀ" New Tai Lue Vowel Sign Iy is a combining diacritical mark used in the New Tai Lue script, which was developed in the 1950s for writing the Tai Lü language spoken primarily in southwestern China, Myanmar, Laos, and Thailand. This specific vowel sign represents the sound of a long or tense "i" vowel, and it is written above the consonant it modifies. It is part of the New Tai Lue block in Unicode, which was added to support the modern standardized orthography of the Tai Lü people, replacing the older, more complex Tai Tham script.
