U+A02C "ꀬ" Yi Syllable But Unicode Character

U+A02C "ꀬ" Yi Syllable But is a character from the Yi script, specifically the Northern Yi language (also known as Nuosu), and it represents the syllable pronounced as "but" in that language. This script, standardized in the Unicode Standard as the Yi Syllables block, was historically used in the Liangshan region of China and is part of the modern, standardized syllabary that replaced the earlier, more complex traditional Yi writing system. The character serves a purely phonetic function, mapping directly to a spoken syllable rather than carrying independent semantic meaning, and it is one of over a thousand such syllables encoded to support the written representation of the Yi language.
