What 𖪃 means
An /i/ vowel with mid tone in Muishvung.
It sounds like the vowel in the English word “see.” Here, tone is pitch that distinguishes words; this letter can stand alone or follow a consonant.
Does 𖪃 sound the same across Tangsa varieties?
Not necessarily; this reading is for Muishvung.
Lakhum Mossang created the script in 1990 to write Muishvung, his own Tangsa variety. He and a few students used it only by hand until font work began around 2012.
A Tangsa community committee formed in 2019 to adapt it for more varieties. As of 2020, Myanmar-side communities favored the Tangshang Naga Unified Orthography (TNUO), a Latin-based writing system.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𖪃 show as a box on some devices?
It is recent: Unicode added it in version 14.0 (2021), and phones and computers whose fonts are older than that have nothing to draw it with. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
