WANCHO LETTER AAN is other letters, including syllables and ideographs from the Supplementary Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of WANCHO LETTER AAN is Left-to-Right (Strong). It belongs to the strong left-to-right characters..

The Left-to-Right (L) bidi class is assigned to characters that are written from left to right. This includes most alphabetic characters from Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, and other scripts that are typically written in this direction. The presence of L characters in a text influences the overall text directionality in bidirectional contexts.

Other Letter (Lo) refers to letters that do not fit into the uppercase, lowercase, titlecase, or modifier letter categories. These include letters from scripts that do not have case distinction, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, and others. This category is also used for syllabic and ideographic characters that function as letters.

This character belongs to the Wancho block. The Wancho script is used by the Wancho people, an indigenous group from northeastern India, particularly in the state of Arunachal Pradesh. The script was developed in the early 21st century by local community members and linguists in an effort to preserve the Wancho language, which was previously written using the Latin alphabet or not written at all. The creation of the Wancho script is part of a broader effort to revitalize the language and ensure that it remains a living part of the community’s cultural identity. The inclusion of the Wancho script in Unicode is crucial for this revitalization, as it allows for the digital encoding of the language, making it possible to create educational materials, literature, and digital content in the script. By providing a standard for the script in Unicode, the block supports the community’s efforts to preserve their language for future generations, ensuring that it can be taught and used in both print and digital media..
