Is ᎆ the same as 𞟴?
Different characters, same syllable in older and modern Gurage spelling. In 1962, Gurage writer Sahle Selassie Berhane Mariam and linguist Wolf Leslau developed an expanded spelling for Chaha, a Gurage language, to mark sounds the existing script did not distinguish; it appeared in print in 1966. In 2013, the Gurage Zone revised the system, giving labialized letters a shared w-marker. The old-to-modern table pairs ᎆ with 𞟴.
