Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+A5E7 "ꗧ" Vai Syllable Wen is a specific glyph from the Vai script, a writing system historically used by the Vai people of Liberia and Sierra Leone. This character represents the syllable "wen," which is one of many syllabic units in the Vai language, a Mande language spoken by over 100,000 people. The Vai script was invented in the early 19th century and is notable as one of the few indigenous scripts in West Africa to be created without direct European influence. The character "ꗧ" embodies a distinct, curved visual form typical of Vai syllabary symbols, and its inclusion in the Unicode Standard helps preserve and digitally represent the linguistic heritage of the Vai community.
