U+1E90D "𞤍" Adlam Capital Letter Dha Unicode Character

U+1E90D "𞤍" Adlam Capital Letter Dha is a glyph from the Adlam script, a writing system created in the 1980s by two brothers, Ibrahima and Abdoulaye Barry, to transcribe the Fulani language (Fulfulde) widely spoken in West Africa. This particular character represents the capital form of the letter "dha," which corresponds to the voiced dental fricative sound /ð/, similar to the "th" in the English word "that." As part of the Adlam alphabet, it follows a right to left writing direction and is used in modern educational and religious texts, reflecting a contemporary effort to preserve and promote Fulani linguistic heritage through a standardized, indigenous script. Its encoding in the Unicode Standard ensures digital compatibility across devices and platforms.
