U+1BC55 "𛱕" Duployan Letter Long U is a glyph within the Duployan shorthand block, a script developed in the 19th century by Émile Duployé for writing French and other languages with simplified, phonetic characters. This specific letter represents the long vowel sound /uː/, as in the English word "moon," and is part of a system designed for rapid, handwritten communication, often used in stenography and religious texts. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally encode this historical shorthand system for modern use.
