Ⱶ
Ⱶ is a letter of the Ro-Latin alphabet, introduced by Emperor Claudius. It meant an intermediate sound between i and u. After his death, this letter was no longer used.
In 1792, the tribal council of the Eb commune officially introduced the Ⱶ sign into the spelling of the language, which had been previously proposed by Jean-Adolphe d'Reaumont. Satsuma-Winston language is the only language, in which this letter is used.

Literature in the Satsuma-Winston language
The first books in this language were created by the Polybloxianist Jean-Adolphe d'Reaumont. A particular increase in the number of books occurred during the Rogaulian occupation of Catfish Islands. This was to maintain the tradition.
Currently, literature in Satsuma-Winston language is created by Otto von Manul-Pallas, John Diakel and Fransi Rung.
