Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+AB0E "ꬎ" Ethiopic Syllable Ddho is a glyph from the Ethiopic Extended-A block, representing a syllable in the Geʽez script used for liturgical and some modern languages in the Horn of Africa. It specifically denotes the sound "ddho," characterized by a labiovelar or implosive quality, and is part of the Gurage or Sebat Bet dialects where such specialized syllables are necessary for accurate phonetic representation. This character extends the standard Ethiopic syllabary, enabling the writing system to accommodate additional consonant-vowel combinations not present in classical Geʽez, thus supporting linguistic diversity in languages like Mesqan or Muher.
