Bamum is a Unicode block containing the characters used for the modern script of the Bamum language (western Cameroon). The characters for old spellings (stages A-F) are in the Bamum supplement block.
Las escrituras Bamum son una serie de seis escrituras creadas para el idioma Bamum por el rey Njoya de Camerún a principios del siglo XX. Se destacan por [b]evolucionar de un sistema pictográfico a una escritura silábica alfabética[/b] durante 14 años, de 1896 a 1910. El alfabeto Bamum fue introducido en 1918, pero la escritura se murió en 1931.
The Bamum scripts are a series of six scripts created for the Bamum language by King Njoya of Cameroon in the early twentieth century. They are notable for [b]evolving from a pictographic system to an alphabetic syllabic writing[/b] over 14 years, from 1896 to 1910. The Bamum alphabet was introduced in 1918, but the script died out in 1931.
Es un hecho realmente divertido que [b]Njoya no estaba satisfecho con la escritura y la cambió 6 veces[/b]. Si la primera variante era puramente ideográfica, la última era una escritura silábica. Al principio, los signos eran solo dibujos, luego gradualmente comenzaron a usarse como acertijos hasta que se perdió su significado léxico.
It's a really funny fact that [b]Njoya was not satisfied with the writing and changed it 6 times[/b]. If the first variant was purely ideographic, the last was a syllabic script. At first, the signs were just drawings, then gradually they began to be used as riddles until their lexical meaning was lost.
[b]La meta de las reformas de escritura fue reducir el número de signos. Sin embargo, Njoya no pensó en los efectos secundarios de esta decisión.[/b] Por ejemplo, ignoró lo que el Bamum es un lenguaje tonal. Como resultado, aparecieron muchos homógrafos en el texto. [i]Los homógrafos son palabras que se escribieron de la misma manera pero que diferían en pronunciación debido a los tonos, lo que, por lo tanto, llevó a una confusión semántica.[/me]

As a result, many homographs appeared in the text. [i]Homographs are words that were spelled the same way but differed in pronunciation due to tones, which, therefore, led to semantic confusion.[/i]
Después de que los franceses llegaron a Camerún en 1918, trataron mal a Njoya, ya que tenía una buena relación con la administración alemana. Por eso Njoya fue al mayor exilio, y se prohibió el alfabeto. Actualmente el alfabeto está al borde de la extincn.
After the French arrived in Cameroon in 1918, they treated Njoya badly, as he had a good relationship with the German administration. That's why Njoya went to the greatest exile, and the Bamum alphabet was banned. The writing is currently on the verge of extinction.

Long before Unicode appeared, and even before computers were introduced to the world, people started inventing chess puzzles. [b]What is a chess puzzle?[/b] Basically, it's an imaginary (or pretty realistic) situation on a chessboard, where there is a certain position and a particular goal for playing this position out. For example, black must lose in three moves. Such an entertainment soon became very popular, and people kept developing and improving it. To make the game even merrier, new rules and figures would be introduced (for example, a grasshopper or a knightmare; I love the language pun of the latter). Such game variations were called fairy chess.
To make it more clear, I'll give you an example: if you watched [b]The Big-Bang Theory[b], you probably remember an episode, where [b]one of the main characters, Sheldon Cooper, was playing three-level chess[/b], which basically looked like three chessboards, located one above the other. The challenging and uplifting game Sheldon found engrossing, was nothing else than a demonstration of what fairy chess may look like. If only he heard about cylinder chess! I guess he would be impressed.

Fairy chess was vastly popular: a lot of magazines and newspapers covered the information about it. To minimize the resources for creating "unorthodox" figures, typewriters took the classic pieces and turned them over. That's why you can see a lot of "rotated" symbols here: it's not your brain going crazy, it's a legitimate chess code.

Additional variants of the CJK hieroglyphs for compatibility with 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 15 from the Chinese national standard CNS 11643-1992.
CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement is a Unicode block that contains a collection of characters that are primarily used for compatibility with older Chinese, Japanese, and Korean character sets. These characters are not commonly used in modern written communication, but they may be necessary for the proper display of historical documents or for certain specialized purposes, such as in the fields of calligraphy or art.
The characters in this block include various symbols, numerals, and ideographs that were used in traditional East Asian writing systems, but are no longer commonly used in modern communication. For example, there are characters for counting rods, astrological symbols, and various historical Chinese characters that are not included in the modern simplified or traditional Chinese character sets.
Overall, the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block is primarily used for historical and cultural purposes rather than everyday communication.

The block contains rare and obsolete hieroglyphs of CJK (The Chinese, Japanese and Korean scripts). Here you can see a lot of encoded variants of the characters registered in the Ideographic Variation Database of Unicode.
Seriously, I've never studied these languages, so colour me impressed. This number of symbols is enough to provide you with the necessary repertoire to speak to your ancestors via Ouija board! Be careful though, you don't wanna bring them back accidentally, so use these hieroglyphs wisely.

I definitely adore this CJK extension. The majority of the hieroglyphs is not available on my laptop, so there's just a bunch of squares dangling on my screen, like pears or apples on a tree in Minecraft. Plus, as I mentioned in other CJK descriptions, I'm not a fan of Oriental languages. I would rather savour the identical geometrical shapes with question marks.

However, for me this block is nothing else but another set of white squares, supposedly hiding some mysterious signs I'll never be able to learn. If you have the same problem, go to the [URL /en/blocks/cjk-unified-ideographs-extension-b/ CJK B extension] and enjoy the full-sized hieroglyphs in their natural habitat. Maybe you'll want to study Oriental languages. I'm done.

If you haven't checked the previous A-E CJK extensions, you're missing the whole fun. I've been whining for a while now.

Honestly, I think these emojis are met less often than the classic cat faces. So copy them asap!

This block is an addition to [block:variation-selectors Variation selectors]. These symbols are used for various representations of hieroglyphs from the Unicode ideographic variations database.
Variation Selectors Supplement is a Unicode block that contains characters that are used to indicate a variation or modification of an existing character or symbol. This block is an addition to [block:variation-selectors Variation selectors]. These symbols may also represent specialized variants of a character that are used in particular contexts, such as in calligraphy or typography.
For example, the character "👩‍❤️‍👨" (couple with heart) can be modified using a variation selector to display different skin tones, hair colors, or other characteristics, such as gender or age. Similarly, a variation selector can be used to represent a particular style of a Chinese character that is used in calligraphy or art.
