Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+A5EB "ꗫ" Vai Syllable Mbe is a character from the Vai script, which was created in the early 19th century by Momolu Duwalu Bukele for writing the Vai language spoken in Liberia. This specific character represents the syllable "mbe," and like all Vai syllables, it is part of a unique syllabary that uses distinct glyphs for each consonant vowel combination rather than an alphabet. The Vai script was one of the few indigenous writing systems developed in sub-Saharan Africa and is still used today for traditional literature and correspondence. The inclusion of this character in Unicode ensures its preservation and digital representation for modern computing and textual communication.
