Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+A6BD "ꚽ" Bamum Letter Nu is a glyph from the Bamum script, which was historically used to write the Bamum language of Cameroon, and it represents the syllable or sound "nu" in that language. This character is part of the Bamum block in Unicode, introduced to preserve and digitally support the script that King Njoya and his scribes developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The letter Nu is one of many characters in the script's original syllabary, which underwent several stages of simplification and reform before falling largely out of common use, though it remains an important cultural symbol for the Bamum people and is used in modern revival efforts.
