U+2C9E "Ⲟ" Coptic Capital Letter O is a glyph from the Coptic script, an alphabet derived from the Greek uncial script with additional letters borrowed from Demotic Egyptian to represent sounds not found in Greek. This particular capital letter represents the vowel sound /o/, similar to the Greek omicron or the Latin O, and is used in liturgical and scholarly texts for writing the Coptic language, the final stage of the ancient Egyptian language. It appears in the Unicode block specifically dedicated to Coptic, encoded separately from its Greek counterparts to preserve the distinct typographic and historical identity of the Coptic alphabet.
