Inuktitut syllabary
The Inuktitut syllabary is a writing system used by
Inuit people in
Nunavut and in northern
Quebec. It was originally adapted from the
Cree syllabary by
Edmund Peck, an
Anglican missionary, in the 1870's. It is part of a system of syllabic writing schemes which are grouped together in the
Unicode standard as Unified Canadian Syllabics.
The initial sound in the syllable can be - G, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, NG, , ƚ (L-), or nothing, and the vowel can be A, I, U or absent.
