Adlam Small Letter Nha

Adlam Small Letter Nha at U+1E93D is a lowercase letter of the Adlam script, used for writing the Fulani language and related Fula varieties. It belongs to the Adlam Unicode block, which encodes the modern right-to-left alphabet created for Pulaar, Pular, and other Fulfulde-speaking communities. In ordinary Adlam text, this letter represents the “nha” sound value used in Fulani orthography, paired with its corresponding capital form when capitalization is needed. It appears in literacy materials, books, messaging, religious and educational texts, and community publishing where Fulani is written in Adlam rather than Latin or Arabic-based scripts. Its use is most common among Adlam readers, writers, educators, font developers, and language technology projects supporting Fulani digital text. The main practical issue is not meaning but support: Adlam is written right to left and requires suitable fonts and keyboards, so older systems may display the letter incorrectly or make it difficult to enter.
