U+1B08F "𛂏" Hentaigana Letter Nu-1 Unicode Character

U+1B08F "𛂏" Hentaigana Letter Nu-1 is a historic variant of the Japanese hiragana character for the syllable "nu" (normally written as ぬ), belonging to the set of hentaigana, or alternative cursive forms used before the standardization of Japanese writing in the early 20th century. This specific glyph was included in the Unicode standard as part of the Hentaigana block, which was added in version 10.0 in 2017 to support historical and literary texts. Unlike modern hiragana, hentaigana like this character often appear in pre-modern documents, calligraphy, and certain traditional contexts, offering a glimpse into the evolution of written Japanese.
