Text symbol

What 𖩿 means

It is e with tone 2, mid-high falling in Muishvung.

Muishvung is a Tangsa variety. Gam Win’s Latin-letter spelling uses e for the vowel and x for tone 2; 𖩿 combines both. Each vowel has four tone-coded letters, and pitch differs among Tangsa varieties. In a syllable, its vowel follows the first consonant.

The Tangsa alphabet dates to 1990, when Lakhum Mossang created it to write Tangsa. He taught it by hand; songs and a prayer showed how the script could preserve culture. A community revision in 2019 broadened its design beyond Muishvung; a Tangsa primer appeared in 2024.

Why does 𖩿 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
