Duployan Letter M N S

44/143

𛰫 is a Duployan compound shorthand letter that combines the M, N, and S signs. Duployé published the system in 1860 for rapid French writing; later versions adapted it for English and Romanian, and Le Jeune’s 1890–1891 adaptation served Chinook Jargon and other languages of British Columbia. In Duployan text, connected letters may change shape depending on the font and app.
