Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+1E88A "𞢊" Mende Kikakui Syllable M057 Ngon is part of the Mende Kikakui script, which was created in the early 20th century by the Mende people of Sierra Leone to write their language, Mende. This specific glyph represents a syllabic unit, pronounced as "ngon," and belongs to a set of over 150 characters in the script, which combines logographic and syllabic elements. Historically developed as an alternative to the Latin alphabet for Mende, the script saw limited use before being largely supplanted, though it remains culturally significant and is encoded in Unicode to preserve its digital representation for linguistic and historical study.
